Stopped by the sewage ponds just north of Silverthorne around 4 PM Tues., and found a nice assortment of ducks. In addition to the usual Mallards, there were Green-winged Teal, mostly males, dabbling near the shore. Further out there were many Goldeneye, both Common and at least 2 pairs of Barrow's, also some immatures of which type I am not sure; and there were several Ring-necked, both male and female. I did not have a scope to see well all the way to the northern end of the pond, but I suspect there were some other species out there, too. All in all, a worthwhile spot to do some looking if you are up in the mountains.
