On this muggy morning our group of six mostly heard 53 species. We had good
looks at a Downy feeding her young and red-shouldered hawk. We spotted a
hooded merganser above the falls. The eaglet continues to grow and is more
active in the nest. All are welcome to join this Sunday walk which meets at
8:00 in the visitors center courtyard. --Marshall Rawson, McLean VA
