A trip to Huntley Meadows on Sunday morning found a Red-tailed Hawk soaring
over the boardwalk and some nice color. On the way home, I stopped at
Kingstowne Lake where I found a large number of Ring-necked Ducks on the
water, along with a few Mallards, Ring-billed Gulls, and Canada Geese, plus
lots of color. If anyone is interested, a photographic record can be found
at the following links:
