The boys and I took a little tour of the Ballard WMA driving loop late this afternoon to check out the waterfowl. A few hundred ducks were seen with mallards and gadwalls making up 99% of the flock with a few shovelers and coots mixed in. Also seen were a few Canada geese along with a perhaps 30 to 40 deer. We also took a little detour to check out the oriole reported yesterday in Kevil by Jeff Rowe. We did not relocate the bird and Jeff has not seen the bird since his initial sighting yesterday.
