[va-bird] Re: Horned Grebe At Stone Bridge, Alexandria

Three Horned Grebe were seen today, Tuesday, March 4, on the upstream side of
the Stone Bridge on the Mount Vernon Parkway just south of Alexandria at 1330
. The low tide brought the Ringed-billed Gulls, Great Black-backed Gulls,
Herring Gulls, Mallards, American Coots, a Bald Eagle, Canada Geese, and
Common Mergansers in close enough for a good look, but no Horned Grebe were
seen until a movement directly below the bridge revealed the bird. Two more
were seen upstream near the Route 1 Bridge swimming with an American Black
Duck. Both a Fish Crow and a Belted Kingfisher scolded the observer.
White-throats in the brush.
As lunches go, it was not bad.
