First Wood Ducks for me this year, all at Jenny Hole Unit of the Sloughs WMA.

Tundra Swans remain at Horseshoe Rd. slough. But, all waterfowl there are very 
skittish.
16 of the Tundras left when I got out of Jeep, they headed NW. At the same time 
the Snows flushed and flew around and then returned.


Located the new nest of the Red-shouldered Hawk that nest at the Jenny Hole 
woods.
