It swam right up to me at one point. It was also hanging around with two RED-NECKED GREBE. DC Cormorants and American Coots were numberous. I checked the usual spots for YCN Herons with no luck. Wood Ducks and Mallards in pairs. The Maint. Yard area produced Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker White-Breasted Nuthatch Red-Bellied Woodpecker Several Northern Flickers Towhee singing American Robins - carrying nesting material Blue Jay Song Sparrows White-Throated Sparrow Carolina Wren Carolina Chickadee Tufted Titmouse Cardinal Goldfinch Non-ID'd Raptor Denise Ryan Washington, DC ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
