Day Four is in the books
I didn't have the time to catch a fish at Elk Neck State Park's Wapiti Pond.
But a bald eagle flew overhead and circled once, right next to the trail sign showing a picture of one.
"Pretty cool," naturalist Crystal Hudson says.
The park has at least five pairs of eagles and several Great Blue Herons that feast on the fish in Wapiti and the nearby Northeast River.
I'll be back to fish here myself.
Hudson swears "you're almost guaranteed to catch" a largemouth bass or sunfish.
Seeing an eagle was a great way to end the fourth day of Park Quest 24/7.
My Park Quest passport is filling with stamps signifying hikes taken, quizzes answered and new facts learned.
Now it's off to Southern Maryland to hook up with some friends for three Quests.
