I saw several migrants during my lunchtime walk.  Along the
Potomac and the Tidal Basin, numerous Double-crested Cormorants
and a couple of Caspian Terns.
   At the north end of Hains Point Golf Course, a Savannah Sparrow.
   Lots of birds at the DC Veteran's Memorial:  A large flock
of Chipping Sparrows, with some Yellow-rumped Warblers and a (yellow)
Palm Warbler mixed in, a territorial Brown Thrasher, a lurking
Towhee, a Brown Creeper (still!) and a Hermit Thrush.
    On my return to work, 3 Black Vultures soaring over the
Castle (I will not interpret this as meaning anything).
