Ken McKenna=92s & Richard Stern=92s notes below stimulated my input here =

their feeding locations, and later in the day and overnight will show up =
and roost densely in the cattails, where they will be talking to each =
other but difficult to see.  In answer to Chris Peters=92 question, =
their feeding locations change frequently, so day-to-day changes are =
expectable in any location.  Cheers from Jim in Wolfville.
