Sparks Road still had ducks in the marshy area on the west side of the road, 2 Gadwall, Pintails, Green-wing Teal, and Mallards. The large Snow Goose flock was nowwhere to be seen. I had a possible Vesper Sparrow in the sparrow flock along the road, but it got away from me. When I was leaving the area on Stevenson Road heading west I spied a large raptor with the Turkey Vultures, GOLDEN EAGLE, bird of the day. Tuckahoe Lake hosted a dozen Snow Geese, some where injured, and will probably be there until they become food for something. There were also 2 Coot, a Wood Duck, and about 20 Ring-neck Ducks. While I was scopeing the lake small pieces of bark started falling near me, upon inspection, it turned out to be a Sapsucker. Also had a Rough-legged Hawk at Kent Narrows in Queen Annes County.
