Saturday - February 22, 2003 (10:00 - 10:30 a.m)The rain held off long enough
to allow a short trip to the Environmental Study Area in Hendersonville. While
just a few species of waterfowl seen, the highlight was definitely a flyover of
8 Sandhill Cranes. The birds were heading northwest when they banked to the
right and flew out of sight to the east. The rain caught us at approx. 10:30,
and we called it a day. Other birds seen were:
4 Common Loons
6 Bufflehead
~25 Ruddy Duck
8 Horned Grebes
plus the usual Mallards, Pied-billed Grebes, and Great Blue Herons.
A farm pond near my house had a mixed flock of 10 Redhead, 8 Lesser Scaup and a
single Hooded Merganser.
