home and to see some ducks in my neighborhood. I took a short walk around
the neighborhood lake (Ironbridge Lake) this morning. Highlight was a
single Canvasback. Species list is below.
Bufflehead (1 male, 4 female)
Hooded Merganser (6)
Pied-billed Grebe (2) - Unfortunately, one was caught up in some fishing
line and seemed in distress.Is there anything that can be done?
