[EBB Sightings] Heather Farm Ducks on Sunday

Late this afternoon I took a quick turn around the main pond at Heather Farm 
Park in Walnut Creek.  I was very surprised to find a true selection of 
ducks on the water.  We have had a male Greater Scaup for three days now, 
but today I found a male Common Goldeneye and a male Ring-necked Duck.  We 
have the continuing Buffleheads, a male and 3 females on the large pond, a 
pair hiding on the pond near the entrance to the Seven Hills School.  There 
were 11 Double-crested Cormorants either on the island, the trees or 
swimming.
