I drove in following Ohio Drive then Hains Point Drive, parked at Parking area 11, across the Washington Channel from the War College. There were two loons of the same size together in the water, one was the breeding plumage Pacific Loon, the other seemed to be a Pacific Loon in winter plumage. Across the channel near the far shore was another winter plumaged individual which I thought was another Pacific Loon in winter plumage. Dalcio Dacol Washington, DC dacol@nrl.navy.mil 202-404-4824
