Yes, Bob, that is a Groundhog. Now I guess I'll need to keep an eye open
for the one that has a burrow under my porch! I guess spring has sprung!
Sincerely,

Poking around Dyke Marsh late in the am produced no sighting of the
Eastern Screech-owl, but there were some ducks around, including Lesser Scaup,
many Common Mergansers, a few Red-breasted Mergansers, handfuls of
Canvasbacks, a few Buffleheads and Mallards. Overall, its seems duck numbers
are
down from just a few weeks ago.
On exit, I saw this little critter, which I think is a ground hog (please
advise if not correctly identified). He was feeding on the open ground
areas in the picnic area just beside the South parking lot.
