Hi, All--

Yesterday (July 1) at the second impoundment at Pennyfield (Montgomery
Co) we saw an adult Black-crowned Night-Heron (no plume). Today we saw
two other adults (one plume and two plumes, the latter holding a stick
in its beak) plus a juvenile. (There are also maybe a couple dozen Green
Herons.) Inasmuch as the safe dates for BCNH ended June 30, I'm
wondering if anybody saw these birds before yesterday.
