Great looks from the road !! Had 8 in the creek along the road and 6 more at the outflow into the Potomac River. Hope my video turns out ... Also, found 1 RNGR at Hughes Hollow, as well as 2 pairs of Wood Ducks, and a few Lesser Scaup mixed in with the Ring Necks. And 1 RN Grebe at Clopper Lake mixed in with the Baldpates and Ring Necks. Saw first Phoebe and Tree Swallows today. On Monday. I had 6 RN Grebes at Seneca Creek, 1 at Hughes Hollow, 1 at LilyPons, and 6 at Black Hills Reservoir (3 at each end of the bridge) .
