Hi all,


   Been a while, still in O.C. working and did some
birding on/off.  Highlight of the non-stop roadside
birding was an adult and two juv. Black-crowned Night
Herons flyby over I-70 headed S from an area called
Loats Park (ADC MAP page 33, E-8 & F-8) just before
Exit 53. Could be new breeding record for Frederick 
Co. I was on my way to a one-day 18th century camping
near Sharpsburg for Colonial Kid's Camp.
