Tuesday  2 December

7:15 - 9:00 am

After being away for one week, I went to check on duck movement at
Radnor Lake.  AM. ROBINs were almost at plague proportions, but I
also saw a dozen RUSTY BLACKBIRDs in two small flocks.

Both the SURF SCOTER and his RUDDY "buddy" have left.  Ducks have
increased somewhat in both numbers and variety with 6 species present.

Pied-billed Grebe 1
Am. Black  6
Mallard 2
Gadwall 28
Am. Wigeon 10
Ring-necked 8
Bufflehead 6

Best bird of the morning was a single female PURPLE FINCH, seen 
feeding in cedar trees near the deck along the lake trail.
