[va-bird] Olde Izaak Walton Park - Blue-winged Teal

I just came back from an exciting walk in Olde Izaak Walton Park in Leesburg. 
The highlight of my lunch walk was a male Blue-winged Teal!!! The bird was 
feeding in the stream adjacent to the educational building in the Park. For 
several minutes I observed the bird at 20-30ft distances. It was nervous and 
tired to find some cover.
 
Other birds of interest were female Northern Shoveler in the pond, Winter Wren 
behind the educational building and a Yellow-rumped Warbler.
