My wife and I traveled up north last weekend to participate in the
Book Across the Bay ski race from Ashland to Washburn. I had heard
the Madeline Island ferry was still running, so thought I'd pick up
some water birds for my 2012 list. In fact, there was little open
water around Bayfield; the only reason the ferry is able to get
through is because it keeps the channel open by breaking the ice on
its trips back and forth to the island.
I did, however, have some luck in the Ashland area. There were three
Goldeneyes swimming with Mallards in Fish Creek where it passes under
Hwy. 2. Another pair of Goldeneyes was out further in the lake. Two
more pairs were observed in open water just east of the power plant
in town.
