My son and I sat in the car for about 20 minutes, on Albert Rill Rd., near our home, watching these beautiful birds flying back and forth across the road and foraging on the trees and ground. What a treat to see so many! I also noted a fairly fresh looking hole in a nearby tree. Also I got a call from my sister who lives in Middle River, off of Bengies Rd., that she had an eagle sitting in a dead snag in her yard. Happy birding, Sharon Schwemmer Hampstead, MD willocreek@juno.com ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
