Merry Christmas everyone...
After a week of not seeing much, it was nice to have some activity at the
lake.  Highlights were the sparrows, swamp and white throated, one of them
an immature with rich buffy stripes on the head instead of the black and
white.  Best of all, the muscovy duck was free of the fishing line it had
gotten tangled in for the past couple days!  (I was worried it had
swallowed a hook, with line and sinker dangling from the beak.)  No owl
visible today, but it was out sunning yesterday.
