[cayugabirds-l] Black-crowned Night-Heron

Today, I lead an SFO trip to Dryden Lake. We parked on the south end of the lake in the small parking lot. As we headed toward the lake, the night heron was on the east side of the walk just north of the pasture at the top of a smallish tree. It suprised all of us. We also heard a Roughed Grouse
