Thanks Reese. As you mention, she was long gone from Charles County Landfill yesterday… But I saw a lot of vultures! Thanks for the update.
It sounds like Grace may be a roamer much like Azalea was in the way she travels about. I wonder if females are more apt to travel about than do males.
By the way, I fell in love with Grace for some reason especially since we don’t hear about Azalea any more.
Thank you Reese for your good work!
stay safe “big girl” and keep in touch..Thank you Reese..
