At one time 7 individuals were in view. They were on an uncultivated field on the north side of Oland Road at the junction with MD 85. Since Lily Pons Road [the continuation of Oland Rd past MD 85] has wide shoulders, that would be the best place to park as far as traffic on Oland Rd is concerned. Checked the Lily Pons ponds from the bridge, did not see the Little Blue Heron or the Great Egrets reported in the morning but saw Solitary and Least Sandpipers and lots of swallows.
