[va-richmond-general] Canvasback and ducks around Richmond

Observed about 100 canvasback at Byrd Park on the pond near Maymont. There were 
also about 200 ring-necked ducks, a few bufflehead and a pied-billed grebe. We 
went down to the Wetlands and Huguenot Flatwater and looked for other ducks, 
but only saw bufflehead. Then I saw Lewis's post that the scoters are still 
swimming around! Oh well. The canvasbacks had beautiful red eyes, but threw us 
off for a minute because many had their eyes closed and the eyelids were 
yellowish gray.
