At Birdseye Boatramp this morning we could not relocate the Eurasian Green-winged Teal, but we're treated to a hen Northern Shoveler flying in. American Coot and 3 species of mergansers in one view were nice.
Also, we found a Swamp Sparrow and Ruby crowned Kinglet in the weedy edges.
At Frash Pond there were at least 2 Canvasback.
At Knapps Landing very close views of Long tailed Duck and Red throated Loon. Across the river there was a hen teal mixed in with Canada Geese. The bill appeared too large and dark for Green winged. We took some poor photos and will review later today.
