[Beverly Threadgill <karmachanic@xxxxxxxxx>]

Many thanks to all who responded to my request for ID help for the 
tree-perching duck in my back yard. Based purely on numbers, I'm declaring it a 
wood duck. So there. 
There's a pretty big free-flowing creek that winds around the back of this 
property and down the north side; plenty of hardwood trees for ducks and other 
winged critters. I spotted a great blue heron in the top of one of the tallest 
trees a month or so ago. He hung out for the day and then was off to parts 
unknown. There's a really huge heron rookery (is that the right word?) very 
near here.

Happy birding, y'all!
