When I first got to Hardy Slough the Bald Eagle’s nest was empty, I saw 1 imm. 
circling high over Cape Hills.
Within 10 minutes the 2 imm. were back on the nest. No adults seen.


The Pond Creek Marsh sandpit is set up for banding of Wood Ducks with blind & 
netting & rocket launchers in place.
The trail back to PCM has been mowed.
