This is the first one I've seen at Seneca Creek SP. Maybe there's a nest nearby?? Other nice birds for me were a Yellow-throated Vireo and a family of Wood Thrushes.

Well worth the drive if you've never seen them before. ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
