Well, that's not the first time I've made multiple trips to the
hatchery in one day. After that miss, I had to go back! The Ross's
were still there (In the new muddy area at the back) with about 40
Canadas. By the time I left, there was only one Am. Widgeon remaining.
Most of the Redheads were still there. Happy birding (Twice) Stephany
