- Environmentalists call for investigation after birds found dead near reflecting pool
Environmentalists are urging an investigation into the deaths of three birds, including a duckling, near the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The pool, recently renovated with a blue coating and hydrogen peroxide treatments for algae, has drawn concerns over potential causes like chemical use or peeling paint. President Donald Trump attributed the issues to vandalism but announced plans to drain the pool for repairs.
