Subject: [MDBirding] Common Gallinule at Bombay Hook


Hope a note about a Delaware birding location is okay for this list. Today
I saw a Common Gallinule at Bombay Hook. The bird was easily visible in the
mud at Bear Swamp. Big feet! I had seen one before in Hungary but not in
the U.S. so I was really glad. For those who like shorebirds,there were
lots of them in Shearness and Raymond pools, both of which are very low.
Also a couple hundred Glossy Ibis, many egrets and herons. Lots to see if
you don't mind all the biting flies.
