[Bristol-Birds] Sullivan County Birds, Feb. 27

Reece Jamerson and Bryan Stevens enjoyed a great stop at the Paddlecreek Pond 
in Sullivan County at about 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 27.

We had nine species of ducks as well as a Red-tailed Hawk and Northern 
Harrier. A few Killdeer and many, many Crows.

Ducks:
Ring-necked Duck- 114 
Gadwall- 31
American Wigeon- 11
Mallard- 9
Lesser Scaup- 8
Wood Duck- 6
Canvasback- 5
Green-winged Teal- 4
Hooded Merganser- 2

We also re-located the wandering Cackling Geese reported already by Rick 
Knight and Tom McNeil. This time, the four Cackling Geese and their Canada 
Geese 
companions were at the Meadowbrook Farm pond on Highway 44 near the turn onto 
Cold Springs Church Road.

At Middlebrook Lake, highlights included 2 Great Blue Herons, 8 Hooded 
Mergansers, a single Ring-necked Duck hen, three Mute Swans, Ring-billed Gulls 
and 1 
Herring Gull.

At Musick's Campground, we had three Common Loons, a Pied-billed Grebe and 
Red-winged Blackbirds and Common Grackles.
