Where is the Prince of Mirkwood?
Fili

After reading "THE HOBBIT" for the fifth time over, and having read and seen the Lord of the Rings, I was wondering...was Legolas, prince of the wood-elves of Mirkwood, present when Thorin and Co. (and poor Bilbo) were captured? And was he also in the party of elves that laid claim to Thror's gold? Can somebody please help me with this?
