Today, about mid-morning, I re-found a male Wood Duck which my wife and I
first saw last Sunday. We have not found it since. It likes to be in the
shadows on the northeast corner of the island in the big natural pond.
In the construction site at the north end of the Heather Farm, future home
of the dog park, the Killdeer adults have two small chicks with them. Don't
know how they managed a possible second family with all that distraction.
The reason I say "possible second family" is because I have seen as many as
4 adults on the ball fields the last couple of months. It would be hard to
say if these are the parents of the first family.
