My wife Jane and I saw two King Rails at Lilypons in Frederick County. They
were at the grass strip between the two ponds on the left as you drive in.
They posed for about 20 pictures. This was my nemesis bird but now a life
bird. It was my 346th Maryland bird. Maybe 400 will be possible once I
retire.  

There was also a Least Bittern in the ponds back behind the house and
towards the largest tree.
