 The Orange-Crowned Warbler(s) continue at the location in Anacostia
Park previously described by Gary Allport. I had two good, but quick,
looks a few minutes and a few yards apart-unsure if there were two
birds, or same bird seen twice. The wabler showed nice yellow undertail
coverts, gray upperparts, slightly lighter breast.

As previosuly posted, bird was in the company of flock of White-Throats,
with a handful of Song Sparrows mixed in. Quick scans of the river for
Common Merganser and bridge area for Peregrine Flacon proved
unsuccesful.

Many thanks to Gary and others - a nice add to my DC list! Last time we
saw this bird was in Alaska in July '04.

 

Good birding!
