The Black-bellied Whistling Duck was present at 12:49 pm. The pond is in a small grove of trees on the west side of Hwy F just north of 50 Avenue in Chippewa County. The duck was sleeping on a log when I observed it. Rory Cameron Chippewa Falls, Chippewa County "We come and go, but the land is always here. And the people who love it and understand it are the people who own it?for a little while."
