Item 1: Four Grebes on a pond near Beauford. Which Grebes? Since it it
was so dark this morning color was not a factor, however, they
definitly were not Western Grebes. Size makes me lean to Red-Neck,how
likely is that? The thing that caught my eye was the very prominent
"ears" and straight bill.
Item 2: Warblers must have been created for the same purpose as
Soduku. In my lilacs never sitting still, of course, olive to yellow
Warbler seemed to have a dark eye ring, couldn't tell eye color.
Item 4: A Sparrow not 15 feet away working diligently among dead
asparagus, not the least interested in me. Not a Fox not quite big
enough, nor with the foxy color. Distinctly striped on the breast,
dark bill, and tan and gray stripe on head. Lincoln's Sparrow?
Also; Most numerous duck at all locations-Ring-Necks
40+ Canvasback on one end of Perch Lake
