park

Today when I went down to the park for the first time, it was sunny but there was still some snow on the ground.
When I was out on the breakwater, I saw some sea gulls, ducks and a great blue heron. I also saw some large boats farther out on the water.
When I was in the park, I heard a squirrel somewhere in the forest alarming.
When I was at the battle site bench, it was sort of low tide and I saw some sea gulls farther down the beach.
When I was on the trail by the trail by the river, I saw some sea gulls and ducks.
When I was on the trail by the river, I saw some ducks on the other side of the river and two geese and one swan in the grass on the other side of the river.
When I was on my way back home, I saw Connor sitting on sage rock taking photos of something.
When I was nearing home, I saw some juncos.
Why was there only one swan by the river?
Where are the other swans that I’ve seen on the river?
Why was the squirrel alarming?
