A Cattle Egret in fine breeding plumage was at the northwest side of the
Potomac Bridge.  This is new for my Mall list, my year list and my DC
Area list (birds seen within two counties radius of DC)!  Excitement!
   Also at the Tidal Basin, Eastern Towhees in the shrubs between the
FDR Memorial and the fields, Savannah Sparrows in the field next to the
shrubs, and a pair of Lesser Scaup in the Tidal Basin itself.
