Since Toni and I have never encountered them in alternate plumage (which seems much more impressive), we'd be interested in hearing about where and when to look for them. Thanks for any help you can offer, Bob Hartman Colesville, MD PS - Are they always seen in flight, or can they be found perched? The ones in basic we saw only as fly-by's - not terribly satisfactory. ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
