The Vermillion was seen sporadically between 9:30am and about 10:30am. It was distant as previously reported and was seen low to the ground and even on the ground near the far northeast opening in the trees across the pond. It was to the right of an old duck blind and left of a wood duck house. It flitted on the ground around the lone leaning tree in the opening that had three main branches, on the edge of the water. It never stayed in sight for very long, but was seen sitting and flying and flew once to the right and again to the left of the lone leaning tree Good Luck! Jenny Wenzel Racine Co.
