This AM I got a call from Beth Mitchell who drove by Melvin Gravel pit and noticed some white geese, I was scheduled to accompany Bob Powell's Wilmington College
Ornithology class and we decided to make Melvin our first stop. We hit the jackpot with:
18  White Snow Geese
15  Blue morph Snow Geese
6    GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE
30  Ring-necked Ducks
2    Mallards
50 Canada Geese
Most of the Snow Geese and the White-fronted took off while we were watching but 1 of each morph stayed with the Canadas

At Caesar Creek there was very little
2  Ring-billed Gulls - in water beyond the flooded beach
2  Ring-billed Ducks  "    "          "          "      "            "
2  Downy Woodpeckers - at Visitor's Center
2  Titmouse
3  Blue Jays
6  Goldfinch

2 Lesser Scaup at the North Pool

Very Happy Birder Cheers,  Larry Gara
