I spent a couple of hours this morning at Duck River NWR and found many of the
the same birds previously reported
Just off Hwy 70 on Long Street, heading south toward the refuge, are 3 sewage
ponds on the right
which frequently hold waterfowl
Today there were about 150 ducks present, mostly Ring-necks with 20 Redheads as
well
At the refuge proper, all 5 geese species were still present, and there also
were an impressive number of N Pintails in various impoundments. There is a
huge gull roost in the middle of Duck River which is at least a mile south of
the refuge road. 3 A White Pelicans were lounging here at the limits of my
optics!
