I was surprised to see a Green-Winged Teal sitting on the lawn behind the Marriott Wardman Park hotel this morning on a grass covered hill. He was sitting in close proximity to a male Mallard and a male Mallard x domestic mix.
He could be a refugee from the boardwalk fire in the wetlands area at the zoo.
