I bike to work and my commute takes me across Chain Bridge. A couple of
weeks ago I thought I saw a swan swimming around in the water thats entrapped in
Chain Bridge flats (the area between the river and the towpath). The next
day I brought my binoculars but of course, no swan to be seen. Yesterday
(again without my binoculars) I saw the bird again. Definitely looks like a swan
(unless it's a really big albino goose??)but too far away for me to see
distinguishing features. Also, not sure whether the sighting falls within DC or
MD; it's not entirely clear to me how the line runs through there.
