Thanks to 2 subscribers to MDOsprey, I am revising my sighting of a long-billed curlew to that of
1 or 2 glossy ibises.  That certainly would fit better both in terms of the sighting date,
location and (in retrospect) the fact that the first one had the bulk approximating a
black-crowned night heron (if, indeed, it was the same species as the second).  In any case, a
pretty good sighting for Rockville Pike, Montgomery Co., MD.
