Just curious about how close this duck is to the family that stayed all
summer in '99. Those were in Trempealeau county I believe, and Chippewa
county isn't very far away. And if there is any relation to that family from
'99. Makes me wonder if they haven't been in the area ever since, just not
seen by any sharp eyes during the interim.

This bird isn't always sleeping. Several people have observed it on
the pond on the east side of the road and gotten good photos.
Even though the duck has been staying in these two small seasonal
ponds, last night a group of us were discussing how long it would be
around and what would happen to this duck that showed up in northern
Wisconsin well north of its normal range.
With perfect timing, a new video taken by an ornithology class viewing
a vagrant White-faced Ibis recently in Massachusetts was posted on
Youtube. The class happened to be in the area when this ibis was first
discovered. Word of its presence was just beginning to spread through
the MA birding community at the time this video was taken.
As a videographer I am usually frustrated when people are talking in
the background while I am taking video, but in this case I think the
captured audio actually helps document this situation well.
