I was also at Eagle Bend (Clinton) today from 10:15 - 10:50am. No Avocet
either but I did find an American Widgeon mixed in with some Mallards and
Gadwall on the deep, squarish pond to the left(east) of the road. This is
the first i've seen here. The upper pond was drained with only 13 American
Coot walking around. A Cooper's Hawk was perched along the river.
