Observation details
Seen while I was in my car, leaving. I saw the bird flying next to the main pond (not present when I was walking around the pond) and immediately recognized the stark 'W' wing pattern and stopped the car, fumbled for my camera, and got out to photograph the bird. As I was doing that, the bird was flying further and further out of sight to the east. The distant photos I've added are the best I got, but I saw the bird much closer before that. The photos show the wing pattern to some extent.
