MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Rick, I have canoed several times over the past few years, however not this year, from Rte 108 all the way down to the Supplee Park area, and there were hundreds of Cliff Swallows nesting under the Rte 29 bridge. However, I believe that spans the Rocky Corge Reservoir from Montgomery to Howard Counties. There may be a fisherman's path from the old Rte 216 bridge near the Laurel City swimming pool west to I-95, and there is a path under the Rte 216 bridge along the Patuxent. I haven't checked it out Maybe this weekend. bob Elvander Rick Sussman wrote: > In a message dated 7/10/2003 1:11:33 PM Eastern Standard Time, > rossgull@CROSSLINK.NET writes: > > > Does anyone know of any nesting Cliff Swallows in Prince George > > County?
