Hi Tweeters, this morning I birded the Brady Loop area again. I located 4
Redhead ducks on a pond on the western side of the road near the
intersection of Brady Loop Rd. and Willis St.. 2 males and 2 females were
mixed in with 4 Scaup. Also, on the same pond continued to be the female
Goldeneye which after today I'm thinking it is a Common Goldeneye because of
its mainly dark bill. Also, in the a tree surrounding the pond there was a
Peregrine Falcon perched near the top.

I also had one lone swan fly over me while I was watching an American
Kestrel on Foster Rd.. Based on its call, I believe it was a Tundra Swan
but I can't be for sure since it disappeared quite quickly.

Good birding,
