[EBB Sightings] Wood Duck/Alameda Cr. in Sunol Area, Alameda Co.

Wood Duck/Alameda Cr. in Sunol Area, ~ Calaveras Rd., Alameda Co., 9/23/09

*

Today, on Alameda Creek, just south of Calaveras Rd. and two miles east of I-680, I heard a couple of 
WOOD DUCK in a perennial reach of this stream.

(As background, some of you may have the checklist for this area: "Livermore Birds: locations and calendar," (Aug. 16, 2000).......and in it, on p.3 of 17, the 
WOOD DUCK is designated as "uncommon" in terms of "seasonal abundance" as a year-round resident in the county.)

Regards, and happy birding,
