4 Rusty Blackbirds highlighted a brief trip to Paper Mill Road. The number of waterfowl was moderate.
Then we pulled by Loch Raven near the #1 bridge where we were greeted by Common Merg and Common Loon
 (but not much else).

Also we saw a single Turkey in the middle of the field north of Pierce's Plantation ( Restaurant).
( Was this wild or domestic?)
