Hi Tweeters,
Lots of feeding activity going on in the pond right now. New visitors:
-There are now 3 instead of 1 female (or nonbreeding male) American
Shovelers feeding in synchronized parallel transects.
-There are 7 pairs of Ring-necked Ducks, rather than four! All were
actively feeding and now engaging in courtship behavior.
-There is one lone coot.
-There are numerous female robins.
Numbers of Canada Geese and Mallards are greatly reduced, to about 8 geese
and 3 mallards.
Also seen:
American Widgeon, 2 male and female pairs
Bufflehead, male and female pair.
Gull, sp? They looked like a herring gulls to me, but perhaps larger.
Juvenile gull, sp? I’m hopeless when it comes to juvenile gulls.
Happy birding,
Blythe Horman, Lynnwood
