Observation details
16 birds counted in one flock parading toward and finally over the dam at close range. At least three adult birds present but most birds appeared to be non-breeding or juvenile birds. I spent the short time we had with them trying to photograph the birds, not aging them. Definitely a major influx of this species into the region today, with large numbers reported elsewhere in MD, DC, and PA.
