There are or were 3 Long-tailed Ducks (2 M, 1 F) and 4 Red-necked Grebes on Beaver Lake as of 12:30. Virginia S. has good pictures of the Grebes and will share them soon. Other ducks included: American Wigeon - 1 Common Merganser - still there Hooded Merganser 1 M, 1 F Ring-necked Duck - 2 F Ruddy Ducks - 3 What a day. In the Sanctuary near the below the ecopond and just above South Creek, I saw 2 Field Sparrows. Almost every year I see one or two Field Sparrows at BLBS but always in the fall. These are the first I've seen in the spring.
