This morning the waters off Dehaven Park were covered  with waterfowl. 
1,000 birds is a conservative estimate, most were Lesser  Scaup and Ring-necked 
Duck. I did count 72 Canvasback. I would have gone  back this evening after 
a break in the storm, unfortunately we had a lot of  sleet in this area & 
chose not to return.
