Although most of the water is frozen in the Auburn Road section of the 
LaDue Reservoir, in the very back of the river there is a bit of open water and
fourteen tundra swans were resting there, heads tucked in, but occasionally
murmuring and calling. Somehow about 100 c. geese were wedged in there 
too, along with a pair of A. Wigeons, gadwalls, hooded mergansers and 15 mallards.

One tree swallow flying over the ice, and several Great Blue Herons standing in the
little slivers of open water along the edges.
