The Sandhill Crane did indeed land just over the hill from the pond. After
watching it depart from the pond where it's been seen, I found it walking
on the paved entrance road to the south off of Fairview Vista Drive. It was
still there, just within the barricade and picking insects off the asphalt
when I left at 7:15.
Later I stopped at the Papermill Flats in Baltimore County. No Golden
Eagle, but 3 BALD EAGLE (2 adult, 1 2nd or 3rd year), 9 BLACK DUCK, about 80
GREEN-WINGED TEAL and 1 female NORTHERN SHOVELER.
