Our group of six tallied 34 species on this overcast morning. Ongoing
observations included both eagles on the nest and the mute swan. The song
sparrow notedwas particularly beautiful and the morning ended with a winter
wren. All are welcome to join this regular Sunday walk that meets at 8:00am
in the GFP visitors center parking lot. -- Marshall Rawson, McLean VA
