I have never seen so many Tree Swallows as I saw today.  They covered the
fence as you first enter and were swarming the ponds.  The counts on the
ducks aren't very accurate as they continually moved from one pond to
another every time I got close enough to view them. If anything, the counts
are low estimates.
