I went by Hornsby Bend this afternoon. At first glance I thought I was not
going to find many ducks again. However, after making the rounds I was
pleasantly surprised.
At the west end of Pond One West were green winged teals, a snipe, coots, a few
northern shovelers, least sandpipers, and killdeer.
While Pond Two was not filled with ducks as I remember from other winters there
was a nice raft of Northern Shovelers maybe 75, northern pintails, American
Wigeons, a group of Gadwalls and a single ruddy duck. More species variety than
when I was there a few weeks ago.
I spent a little bit of time watching the birds in the trees around the main
office.
I did not take the trail to the river
