Hello All,
Had a chance to stop by Ft. Belvoir and Riverside Park today. The best bird
at Belvoir was a Male
Common Goldeneye about thirty feet off shore. Really great to see this bird
so close, what a beautiful duck!
At Riverside Park the American Widgeon and Common Mergansers were still
fairly close also.
