Five NORTHERN SHOVELERS (3 male, 2 female) have joined the waterfowl at the George Road pond as of midday today (19 March 2011). The male COMMON TEAL was still present too, as well as Wood Duck, American Wigeon, Northern Pintail, Mallard, American Black Duck, and Ring-necked Duck. Yesterday two transitional HORNED GREBES were sleeping with the dabbling ducks near the Hart Road side.
We ended up with at least five FOX SPARROWS last night, and although I saw none at first this morning, at 11:15 or so, all five appeared again. We still have several Common Redpolls and American Tree Sparrows too.
