I actually started birding at Nine Springs and saw lots of Canada Geese,
American Coots and Mallards but also a few Northern Shovelers, Green-winged
Teal, American Wigeons, Northern Pintails and Gadwalls.
The northwest wind was really cold so I relocated to the more sheltered Lake
Farm County Park.
The special sighting of the day was a mixed flock of Golden-crowned Kinglets
(6), Brown Creepers (3), Yellow-rumped Warblers (2) and Orange-crowned Warbler
(1) all in with the sentinel birds, the Black-capped Chickadees (5).
In the water I saw a male and female Hooded Merganser hanging out with 5
Pied-billed Grebes.
My eBird list is appended below.
