If anyone read my last post about Yellow Crowned Night Heron, I now know why I don't post on bird sites.... I need to eat some humble pie.
The photo I had posted was eating at me and I thought it couldn't be true that a YCNH was just hanging out at Wash Park. It seemed improbable, and as I rode around on my bike for about 15 minutes I became more sure of this. There are so many dogs off leashes and virtually no good habitat for this type of bird. Thanks to google images being searchable I decided I needed to do some more detective work. Sadly, I found the photo from a posting somewhere else. I guess I should take it as a compliment that my students are thinking about birds enough to spend some time looking up a rare bird to play a joke on me. Oh my, I'm very sorry if anyone looked for it, but I do take solace in the fact that Washington was an enjoyable place to be this afternoon, and hopefully someone gets a good laugh out of this.
