Near the wayside north of town: Still hundreds of scaup (looked like lesser when they fly), ring-necks, some canvasbacks, buffleheads, hooded mergansers.
duck highlight on Pepin: 24 Ruddy Ducks and 2 Eared Grebes Duck highlight at Hok-si-la About 20 wood duck drakes hanging out in the flooded forest a couple pairs of blue-winged teal 1 pied billed grebe. (And a bunch of unknowns when a car pulled in front of me and a guy got out in a very obvious fashion, slamming car doors, etc., brandishing binoculars and walking right up to the edge of the road and water and everyone else flew away. Sigh. Cars can be such perfect blinds. ) ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
