I heard a Common Gallinule calling this morning from the towpath at Vischer Ferry Preserve. The call is a pretty unusual one with a downward whinny. This is fairly early in my experience for this species. The numbers of ducks along the west pond have thinned out but there still are Wood Ducks, Ring-necked Ducks, and American Wigeon. A few other species detected include Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Marsh Wren, and Pied-billed Grebe.
