Hi all,
Went birding at Mosquito Creek Wildlife Area today. Ducks, Grebes, and Coots probably numbered nearly a thousand individuals. I wasn’t going to even try to count. Here are some really rough estimates:
American Coot – Couple Hundred
Hooded Merganser - ~150-200
Gadwall - ~100+
Mallard - ~100+
American Wigeon - ~70+
Bufflehead - ~40+
Ring-necked Duck - ~20
Pied-billed Grebe - ~15+
Ruddy Duck – ~10
Northern Pintail – X
Tundra Swan – 37 (fly-over)
Bald Eagle – 2 Ad. 1 Juv.
Northern Harrier – 1
Also along the causeway:
Bonaparte’s Gull – XXX
Common Loon - 3+
Snow Bunting – 3 (on causeway)
Mallard - ~30
