Yes, you just may not be able to drive all the way in. The guys parked at the gate to unit 4 and had it fly over their heads. It was hanging out over the native prairie. I would expect it to move between unit 3 and 4 and I would check the cross arms of the power polls that lead into the DU marsh on unit 3. That is where I have seen them in years past. Those units are so close, I would expect the bird to move between them. Roger Roger D.
