Good morning birders..
Finally found some elusive Wood Ducks at Dutch Gap. We spotted at least 20
pairs.
I managed to get a few photographs, but they were way back in the
vegetation. Will be keeping an eye on them for nesting and ducklings. Very
exciting for me.. Just wish they were closer, or I had a bigger lens. No
sign of the Least Bittern. Lots of Ring-necks, Wigeons, Coots and Gadwall.
Many Red-winged Blackbirds which were a welcome sight and sound.
At least 8 Great Blue Herons and 3 Osprey on a Dominion Power tower near the
entrance road, and one lone Kestrel...
