Hello all, I just happened to glance out my window a minute ago and saw a white large gull-like bird fly off of the pond near the white barn in Sapsucker Woods and into a tree about 40m west northwest of the platform. Through binoculars I think that it's a juvenile LITTLE BLUE HERON (white heron/egret with long thin black bill, and traces of bluish grey feathering on the top of its head, and maybe wings). The bird's still about 15m up in a tree as I type.
