Returned home last night after a trip down south (much more on that in upcoming posts) arriving home around 1:30AM after some flight delays. I was itching to get out a bit this morning to catch up on the new arrivals and hopefully see the long staying Eurasian Wigeon. Unfortunately it looks like the wigeon has moved on as it has not been reported in a couple days and I did not see it this morning although it could still be in the area. Nonetheless it was still a productive morning and added three new species for the year in the county with an early Great Egret, a Blue winged Teal female and a flyover Greater Yellowlegs plus a great variety of waterfowl.
I also checked the duck boxes at the house and box#2 that had one egg right before I left for vacation now looks to have a full clutch. The other two boxes look like they have been visited but no eggs yet.
