Long-billed marsh wren sings again in the nation's capital

Syphax S. 1996. Long-billed marsh wren sings again in the nation's capital. Park Science. 16(4):9

Although marsh wrens used to be abundant in the emergent marshes along the tidal Anacostia River, the bird had not been seen or heard in Kenilworth Marsh in the past 30-40 years. However, four years after a project to restore Kenilworth Marsh began, long-billed marsh wren were observed to have returned to the marsh.
