We arrived at the "stork pond" at 5:00 this evening. There were already
about 4 or 5 cars there, everyone waiting patiently (or maybe not so much). At
about 5:30, 1 stork flew in from the west & landed in the back east corner.
About 15 minutes later, a 2nd stork flew in & joined him. They both just
seemed to rest there for some time. After a little bit, the resident Great Blue
Heron seemed to be unhappy with their presence & chased them around some.
Maybe he just wanted that corner because the storks then began foraging in the
rest of the pond & the heron left them alone. When we left at 6:30, the 3rd
stork had not appeared.
We talked to people from as far away as Cleveland, Pittsburg, & West
Virginia. We only had to drive about 1 1/2 hours. Others drove 3 hrs or more.
