I was thrilled to witness the return of the Wood Ducks to the NSCC campus pond today. I made my way to the pond after a heavy lightning and thurnder and hail storm, walking on the white hail covered grass - moving towards the pond slowly. There were 11 male Wood Ducks and I only saw 3 females. They showed no fear of me as I stood silently watching in the birght sun. Mixed in with the Wood Ducks were a pair of Gadwals, some Mallards, 2 pair of Ring Necked Ducks, 2 pair of Buffleheads and an American Wigdeon pair. It was a wonderful sight.
