This morning I made a visit down to the Goodrich pond. Lots of water and new ponds have formed from the flooding in the surrounding area. There is still lots of waterfowl on the pond, and I had a Peregrine Falcon fly over and scareup some birds. It didn't catch anything, so it flew into the fields. There is hunting allowed in the northeastern fields, so the pond is like a refuge. When I left more ducks were flying in. Birds still there;

Trumpeter Swans - 15
American Wigeon - lots
Eurasian Wigeon - 2
Northern Pintails
Northern Shovelers
Green-winged Teals
Buffleheads
Lesser Scaups
Ring-necked Ducks
Dunlin
Black-bellied Plovers - 5
Mew and Ring-billed Gulls
Bald Eagle - 2 adults
Northern Harriers
