Hi Everyone, 

Went for a late afternoon drive to Patuxent Refugee North Tract on Saturday . 
Did the Bald Eagle loop to Lake Allen. Found a juvenile Bald Eagle sitting in a 
tree at watersedge at the stream and the wooden bridge. It was a third year 
with the golden cap . was trying to make it into a Golden Eagle. Ringnecked 
ducks and Pied billed grebe at Lake Allen. Made some stops at Race rd. , River 
rd. , Nursery rd. , and Southwest area park looking for Bald Eagle , ducks and 
woodcocks. Found Bald Eagle a few ducks and no woodcock .. Got Bald Eagle 
flying over moms house in Brooklyn park Fridayfor a new yard bird . He flew in 
with a few Vultures and stayed for a few minutes circling around overhead. .
