I took a walk to Tifft on Tuesday 3-24-20 and had Virginia Rail off Old Tifft St (reported previously by P. Corrigan). Also in that area was at least 1 Rusty Blackbird (although it was possible there may have been more).
The Mute Swan previously reported by A. Nowicki was also present, along with a nice variety of other expected waterfowl. This was the first time I have seen a Mute Swan at Tifft. The full checklist can be seen here: https://ebird.org/checklist/S66188526 David and Marilyn, I apologize for not mentioning the rail. I was more excited about the Rusty!
