Comments: The entire park was practically frozen. The only area of water open was a small section on the N side of the lake. Foggy conditions during the entire walk. It was restricted to the areas open for traffic (pedestrian & cars). The feeders were almost empty. I found 1 Ring-billed Gull with a wing tag (no numbers or letters), kind of orange color.
