At approximately 2:00 pm est a reported Yellow-billed Loon was reported =
to be found by Marshall Illiff at the Loch Raven Rd. bridge of the Loch =
Raven Reservior in north central Baltimore County, MD. To reach the =
location, take the Baltimore Beltway (I-695) to exit 29, Cromwell Bridge =
Rd. and go northeast from there approximately 1 mile. Turn left onto =
Loch Raven Rd. and proceed about 1 1/2 mile +/- to the first bridge =
crossing. The bird was reported to be in this area but I don't know if =
it was  north or south of the bridge. The larger expanse of lake is to =
the north and is probably the more likely area. If the bird cannot be =
found here, you can reach another bridge about 1 mile northwest, or 3 =
miles driving distance, of this location by continuing around the lake =
on Loch Raven Rd. to Dulaney Valley Road. Go left at the intersection =
(the Pierce's Plantation Rest. is on the corner here) and follow the =
road to the Dulaney Valley Rd. bridge. Park at the parking area just =
prior to the bridge. From here you can look back towards the first =
bridge or look north for the bird at a section of the lake not visible =
from the other site. This road is much busier and caution should be used =
when trying to cross the road and look northward if the bird cannot be =
found in the main part of the lake. More information will be posted as =
it becomes available.
