At about 4PM today, I visited both Guilford Lake and nearby Salem Reservoir. One small open pool of water remained at each location. The only birds remaining were: Canada Goose~60+, Mute Swan~8, Gadwall~6, Mallard~40+, Hooded Merganser~1 pair, Common Merganser~ 3 females, Ruddy Duck~2, American Coot~3, and Killdeer~2. Christmas Bird Counts in this area may be lacking waterfowl this year!
