Late in the afternoon I stopped at LaDue Reservoir. The composition of ducks has changed a bit, with the addition of ruddy ducks, scaups, and american wigeons. The long tailed duck is still near the shore line. Got home, browsed my power line traversed fields, and disturbed a beautiful, male northern harrier. Slowly circled over the fields, only a few feet over the vegetation, and then gradually circled on up and away, briefly harassed by the resident cooper's.
