Temps were in the high 60s, with clear skies and a slight breeze as I set out for Governor Bridge this morning. I didn&#8217;t want to repeat  yesterday&#8217;s experience, so I found another promising area nearby, and set up to wait. Gnatcatchers, Vireos and Hummingbirds soon appeared, and I stayed in place for over an hour. As I headed back to the &#8220;Magic&#8221; tree, my friend Graeme showed up in response to an email I sent last night, and we spent some time exploring the lake. He and I will meet at  a new place in Beltsville tomorrow. <\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_9450\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
