We seem to have a nice push of dabbling ducks moving through.  I checked
out the flooded fields along the corner of Hwy. 57/Cth. B and they have
prime water levels for attracting migrating waterfowl (...and shorebirds
should they ever arrive).  There was a good variety of waterfowl there this
morning. List below...

Canada Goose  16
American Wigeon  8
Mallard  6
Blue-winged Teal  4
Northern Shoveler  25
Green-winged Teal  5
Red-winged Blackbird  4


 Should anyone have occasion to drive by there, be sure to look over the
cut corn field to the south of Cth. B and swing by the flooded woods along
Marx Rd. which produced the first Tree and Barn Swallows for me this year.
Nearby Brillion SWA had a Rough-legged Hawk hunting along Conservation Rd.
and an adult Bald Eagle on a dead tree in the impoundment.

Thanks!
