Judy Galitzine and I birded from inside the Interpretive Center after a class
at the Falls around 11 AM today. Estimated 350 to 400 ducks in the outer
basin, between fixed weir and Shippingport Island.
Mostly divers in outer basin; scaup species, bufflehead, canvasbacks, redheads.
The shallow pools in front of fixed weir had some dabblers; lots of mallards,
gadwalls, a few black ducks, and one male northern pintail.
Ashland Park; one male red-breasted merganser, buffleheads and a few
ring-billed gulls. The Ohio River above the Interpretive Center is starting to
freeze-up.
The local adult peregrine falcon was perched on the railroad bridge.
Did not see a single gull or duck near Big Four Bridge area.
