My wife and I birded Radnor Lake in Nashville this morning from
7-9:15am.  Good numbers of ducks were present, including:

~260 Gadwall
10 mallards
38 Ring-necked Ducks
1 Lesser scaup (male)
2 Pintails (both male)
1 American Wigeon (male)

The scaup tried to hang out with the ring-necks, but they kept
excluding him.  Then he ended up swimming around by himself and actually
came fairly close, providing nice views.

Also had 4 winter wrens, 2 of which sang repeatedly.

Cheers,
   Scott Somershoe
