I know that Friday's southerlies brought in lots of migrants, but one I did
not expect showed up at Riley's at 5:30PM today. As I stepped off the
bridge over Seneca Creek a large bird walked out onto the towpath. It was a
mostly white pea hen! I made a few steps and it non-challantly walked back
into the brush and was actively feeding. When I returned twenty or so
minutes later it was gone.
Be on the lookout, even though I don't think this is a countable!
