[mou] Olmsted waterfowl

[Bob Ekblad]

Diane & I checked out a few spots on the west side of Rochester this 
morning.  

There were at least three Greater White-fronted Geese at the Historical 
Society flooded field (to be a churchyard in the near future - and 
probably not with a flooded field).  The South Landfill Reservoir had 
open water in the middle that had several Northern Pintail, a Gadwall, a 
few Green-winged Teal and a female scaup.   The East Landfill Reservoir 
was still iced over with just a bit of open water at the culvert by the 
road that a few pintail were using.  There were a couple of Ring-billed 
Gulls on the ice there as well (along with our usual Canada Geese and 
Mallards).
