Subject: [MDBirding] Great Falls: Fledgling Eagle and BC Night -Heron


One of the recently hatched Bald Eagles from the nest on Conn Island was flying around, testing it's wings this morning.
It didn't fly far, but flew from the nest tree to a nearby snag, hopped around on the snag, and then flew back to the nest tree.

Also, observed a Black-crown Night-Heron flying around over the falls and then landing on a tree on the Md. side. Not a common bird there.
