We are trying to cull through things here at home and have some 15 books, mostly birding-related and a few other "nature-type" books, to give away. If you are interested, please reply off-list and I'll send you a list of what we have. Here on our Mallard Lake in north Medina City we've had a female Northern Shoveler coming to our lake to one of the patches of water with bubblers keeping it thawed for the past few weeks. She's in and out. We've also had a female Green Wing Teal visiting for about a week, both in the lake and in our yard feeding with the Mallards beneath several of the feeders. The Teal appears to have a bad right foot but keeps up with the Mallards quite well. Cheers ! Dave Kersten / Rev.
