Jesse and all,
I should've been slightly more specific in my post. Sorry.
Schumacher Road is in Northern Dane County just northeast of Waunakee.
Take Hwy 113 North out of Waunakee. Turn right (East) on Cuba Valley Rd.
Schumacher Rd is the first through road. Turn left (north) on Schumacher Rd.
The Reeve was in the pond on the west side of the road.
Good luck!
Happy Birding! --Chris W, Richland County

material expression be destroyed; a vanished harmony may yet again inspire the

more, another heaven and another earth must pass before such a one can be
again."
