I was at the Camp Catalpa side of Lake Reba this morning (Richmond, Madison 
County) and noticed that the swallows were back skimming for food.  There was a 
good mix of barn and tree swallows.  Also, two pair of wood ducks hanging 
around, one pair perched high atop some catalpa trees in the park.  A few 
mallards, the resident geese, coots, and 2 pairs of ringneck ducks rounded out 
the waterfowl.  Passerines were also active, with several small flocks of 
golden-crowned kinglets seen, along with yellow-rumped warblers and one brown 
creeper.  I was there for non-birding reasons this morning, so neglected to 
bring my binoculars, but still a good day overall.
