I was trying to avoid this a little as I believe it is a very sensitive area so please be respectful of no trespassing signs, etc.

When going down Arthur Lamb Jr. Road (main road with gate/toll), take first left which is Sewage Plant Road. Follow it to the end and there is a dirt road before the plant entrance gate on the right which runs along the outside of the fence. Head east on that dirt road. It was seen in the vegetation to the immediate right of the road within 100 yards of the turn and between the road and a dirt hump/divider you can't see over. It flew to some trees just over the hump at one point. I saw first and then heard calling. I did not have to get out of the car. If you follow this dirt road, it will dump you back on Arthur Lamb Jr.

I just took a look on google maps and see "Duck Lake" within this area. I have never been in there and didn't even know that was there. There is a large tower in the middle of this area. I have always considered this area part of the "no trespassing" signs and construction area inside these perimeter roads.

Other locals please chime in....

Good Luck!!!
