Hilary Bok asks: > I know it was described as being on Eagles Nest Rd., but where exactly > is that? Leave Ocean City heading west on Rt. 50. Turn south on Rt. 611 (the road to Assateague Island). After about a mile you will pass the airport on your left, and then a golf driving range. Just past the driving range, make a left onto Eagle's Nest Road. When you get close to the golf course you will see a pond on the left, just across from the Humane Society animal shelter. We saw the Eurasian Wigeon here this afternoon about 1 p.m. in company of about 30 or more American Wigeon, Northern Shovelers, Gadwall, Mallard, etc. A scope helps but isn't essential.
