[va-bird] Redheads and Eurasian Widgeon

If you want to see Redheads, there is an excellent spot in York 
County bordering on Hampton.  Go to the intersection of Hampton 
Parkway (Rte. 134) and Big Bethel Road. Heading east on Hampton Pkw., 
go a short distance and turn right into an apartment complex called 
"Belmont at York".  The pond is right in front of you surrounded by 
the apartments.  On Saturday (Feb. l9) there were 70 -75 Redheads ... 
a sight to behold! I understand that these ducks have been coming to 
this same pond every winter for many years.

Also on Saturday we saw a beautiful Eurasian Widgeon at Ridgway Park 
in Hampton.
This park is on the left side of Mercury Blvd. a short distance from 
the intersection of Mercury and Fox Hill Road.

Good birding.
