The Common Gallinule was still present at 11:35am this morning at the pond in
Camp Jordan. I did not see it on my first pass but on the second driveby I saw
it swimming directly for the Island. Once it got to the island it climbed up
onto a dead branch and preened for a few minutes. It then walked up the branch
onto the island and ran towards an American Coot who had only very recently
occupied the top of the island's hill. The Gallinule was successful in taking
the hill. When I left he was marching around proudly pecking here and there.
