Several of the "ponds" along the walkway at Sheldon's Marsh had open water today. In the ponds I found about 50+ Canada Geese 30 Mallards 25 Green-wing Teal 12 Northern Shovelers 3 Pintail The shore ice still extends farther out into the lake than I could reliable identify anything. There were adult and immature gulls and some dark waterfowl bobbing around. In addition, I've seen Turkey Vultures around the area.
