As usual, it's all in the = timing. At Lapidum: 1 Horned Grebe, 5 DC Cormorants, 14 Red-breasted = Mergansers, 3 Great Black-backs. At Port Deposit: 2 DC Cormorants, 2 Mallards, 2 Coots, 4 Bonaparte's = Gulls, 6 Ring-billed Gulls, 1 Great Black-back. At Conowingo Dam: 8 DC Cormorants, at least 100 active nests of Great = Blue Herons, 12 Ring-billed Gulls, 14 Herring Gulls, 28 Great = Black-backs. I also checked some spots upriver but there was no activity. Bald Eagles and Ospreys seen most everywhere.
