I took a short walk over at Dryden Lake, and found an interesting collection of ducks on an otherwise cold December day. There were 6 American wigeon, together with buffleheads, common and hooded mergansers, and a collection of mallards. Wigeon haven't been reported in eBird at Dryden Lake since late March, so if you are passing through (and especially if you have a scope), feel free to check them out.
