[mou] Black Crowned Night Heron in Golden Valley

[Heidi Ferguson]

At 2:30 I spotted a Black Crowned Night Heron along King Creek in Golden
Valley.  This is a seasonal drainage and I don't think the bird will be in
the area of long.   It was hunting in the water and then perched on a tree.
It could easily be seen from the top of the walking path between Laurel
Avenue and Glenwood at Kings Creek Road. 

Directions
	Exit 394 at Xenia/Park Place
	Drive north two blocks to Laurel Avenue 
	Turn Left (west) onto Laurel
	The entrance to the walk way is about 1 block west of the
intersection at the end of the condo block.
	Walk to the end of the path at the Kings Creek Road Entrance.  It
was best viewed from the top of the stairs looking east into the tree
thicket.  

	Three cheers for Avian Serendipity
