This evening (10/17) Jacob Newton and I ran over to Rock Creek State Park
to see the Red Phalarope. At dusk it was still feeding on the N side of
the bridge between the two entrances on F27. A pair of Sandhill Cranes
and a free-flying Mute Swan were also present.
Hi All,
Coming soon to a mailbox near you, the latest issue of IBL contains a 26
Apr field report of a Mute Swan at Rock Creek SP by Mark Proescholdt. It
seems rather likely to me that the swan seen by Paul and Jacob is the
same bird remaining throughout the summer at the park- not a
particularly "wild" behavior. Have others seen this bird as well during
the intervening time?
