My husband and I were driving past Blendon Woods Metro Park yesterday (northeast side of Columbus/Westerville) so we stopped briefly at the Walden Waterfowl Preserve area. In about 5 minutes of viewing time, we saw 6-7 wood ducks and about 10-12 black ducks. There were also a few stray mallards and Canada geese. All were towards the right hand blind, and could not be seen from the left hand one. Anyone near who hasn't seen any wood ducks yet this season should definitely check this out!
