[EBB Sightings] Eurasian Green-winged Teal at McNaby Marsh

Hi Birders,

This morning at McNaby Marsh (aka Waterbird Regional Preserve) in nearby 
Contra Costa County, there was a nicely marked EURAISAN GREEN-WINGED TEAL at 
the south end of the marsh.  I walked south from the parking lot along the 
rolling hills, using a trail I believe was named Meadlowlark Trail, to reach 
the southern end of the marsh.  There is a firewood cutting facility close 
to the marsh where I saw the bird at about 10:30AM today.  There are about 
150 Green-winged Teal in the marsh, so you need to work through them to find 
the Eurasian.

Hanging out in the parking lot were 14 GREAT TAILED-GRACKLES, double the 
number I saw there a year ago.   Also, a flock of about 125 CACKING GEESE 
circled once over the parking lot as I departed at around 11:00AM.

Continuing along Waterbird Way just a quarter mile or so east of the McNaby 
Marsh parking lot, there is a pond on the left that had two MUTE SWANS.

Good birding,
Bob Battagin
