I checked the Struthers - Lowellville stretch of the Mahoning R. (Mahoning Co.) again today.  Waterfowl seen  were: Canada geese, mallards, 3 Am. black ducks, 2 canvasbacks, 5 redheads, 16 ring-necked ducks, lesser scaup, 7 scaup spp., 3 buffleheads, 2 c. goldeneyes, 6 hooded mergansers, and red-breasted merganser.  No common mergansers and only a couple goldeneyes suggest these species have already moved north.  Craig Holt, Poland Twp.
