Alex,

There was no one in the check-in booth, so I didn't stay long.

First off... Thank You for contacting your school and getting the MD
birding community access.

Secondly... the GWFG was present late this afternoon, feeding on the
golf course with the other Canadas (just off of Rockville Pike).

Great bird.  Enjoy your weekend all.

Best,

Dan Haas
