[Bristol-Birds] Nicewonder Pond

I stopped by the Nicewonder Pond (Exit 10, I-81, Washington County, VA) this 
afternoon. In addition to the usual Canada Geese, I counted approximately 53 
Ring-necked ducks, 8 Am. Wigeon, 7 Gadwall, 3 Redhead, 3 Mute Swans, and 4 
Mallards. Last week my high count for the Ring-necked ducks was 103. 
In the field beyond, I spotted six Wild Turkey, all young males (jakes), 
playing around in the open field with deer browsing nearby. What a site!
