the breeding-plumaged pacific loon reported the last three days was still fishing the calm and presumably icthyoliferous (judging from the number of b.c. night herons and fishermen present) waters of the Washington Channel, as of lunch-hour today. the bird was easily observed from east potomac park, often surfacing a few meters from the seawall. surprisingly few observers were present, considering the downtown location. the two common loons reported yesterday were not in the vicinity.
