The Trumpeter Swan at Patuxent South Tract/Nat'l Visitor Center was present at 2:30 and I got to see it a close range, but it swam off to far side to feed. Lots of Ring-necks also present, but only other waterfowl I observed were Canada Geese.
I then swung by the Oxbow at Russet, but only saw two teal, but didn't get a good profile on the male before they flew. In any case, did not observe a horizontal OR vertical white stripe. A Winter Wren chipping at me was a nice consolation prize.
