Greetings All
Today Cathy Sheeter and I strolled along the S Platte River from about 68th to 88th (street?). The number of ducks along the river was staggering. Some totals: 1445 N Shoveler 910 Gadwall 505 N Pintail 240 GW Teal 175 C Goldeneye 155 Mallard 130 Bufflehead Other highlights included 3 male and 1 female BARROW'S GOLDENEYE (with one male seemingly paired with a female Common) 3 MALLARD X GADWALL (one was the same bird photographed at the same place by Bill Schmoker and I last year. The other were pretty typical Brewer's Ducks: Gadwall body except brownish chest, green head with russet on cheek, black bill with yellow edges) 1 MALLARD x N PINTAIL We also had a stunning 81 or so American Pipits, mostly between 74th and 68th.
