1-13-09 Radnor Lake Davidson Co. While walking along the road at Radnor Lake this morning, I saw some scaup that I suspected to be Greaters. They had the more rounded head and nape with the peak towards the front of the crown, and the bill was wide with a noticeable black nail. When I got around to the Lake Trail near the platform, they flew by me twice and I could see the white in the wings extending into the primaries. There were 2 males and 3 females. This is only the second time I've seen Greaters at Radnor Lake. There was also the usual assortment of ducks (including 19 beautiful Canvasbacks) and geese, with the addition of a pair of Northern Shovelers in the east slough.
