Just before sunset on Delaware Reservoir I found
-2 adult male Common Mergansers actively feeding
-2 adult male. 1 female Pintails
-2 Cackling Geese
-2 Green-winged Teal
among at least 300 Mallards & 100 Canada Geese

I was best able to view the waterfowl on the lake with a scope
from the Cardinal Picnic Grove at Delaware State Park.
To find the picnic area:
take the first road right after entering the park from US23(towards boat
ramp),
make the first left to enter picnic area and find a break in trees to view
the lake.

This group of waterfowl were not visible from the marina or Panhandle Road
which also allow views of a different sections of the lake.
