Two Great Blue herons and several hooded Mergansers have joined the Canadas and Mallards on the larger lake at Crosby. On the NW corner of the small lake, one of the Barred Owls was roosting in a tree beside the trail. A pair of Blue-winged Teal were wending their way downriver near the end of Pike Island, where no fewer than a dozen fishing boats were working the waters. At least one Brown Creeper was highly visible by the backwaters, choosing to forage near ground level, as he flitted between trees beside the path. His/her strategy must be productive--he/sh seemed very plump
