When we did the Atlas in Sligo, we always found Black-crowns at the 
storm-water ponds at  Dennis Drive, which is upstream from Colesville 
Rd. We never saw Yellow-crowns there...

This posting may only be of interest to those who have birded in Sligo 
Creek Parkway, but I found it unusual to see one Black-crowned night 
heron yesterday.  I walk in this park frequently and it's the first time
I've 
seen a Black-crowned (it was about 1/2 mile west of Colesville Rd, 
standing in the creek).  I also spotted 4 Yellow-crowned night herons (1 
adult; 3 fledglings), Acadian flycatcher, Wood thrush, Blue-gray 
gnatcatcher, Belted kingfisher, young Canada geese, young Mallards, and 
all the resident birds.
