Has anyone else seen Gadwalls or Shovelers at the Reservoirs?  I don't usually 
do reports, but I would like to know if other birders have seen these, too.
Two pairs of Northern Shovelers were in the cove area by the golf course 
entrance.  That was on last Saturday, the 8th, our first time ever to visit the 
Reservoirs.  We returned Tuesday the 11th to finish our touring, and near the 
playground at Jacobsen Park we got a very close look at a male and female 
Gadwall.  We did also get to see the Red-Necked Grebe (3).  There were two 
Scaups in the distance.  I couldn't say if they were Lesser or Greater.  
At the Causeway (Lakeshore Drive) we met another birder and she pointed out 
more R-N Grebes and at least one pair of Hooded Mergansers.  The wind was 
picking up and the other ducks were too far away to identify, so we all left.
