Yesterday (Sat July 2) a friend and I found the nest that is directly over the Sligo Creek paved path near Schuyler Dr.  There were 3 juvenile YC Night Herons in the nest!  They are pretty big - I doubt they'll be in there much longer.  Upstream on the creek (on the other side of Colesville Rd.) there were 4 juvenile YC Night Herons hanging out in the creek, fishing and experimenting with other food items (worms, grass, etc).  We also had at least one adult - maybe 2 - in the vicinity of the nest that overhangs the creek.   All so much fun to see.
