I could not find the raft of Ring-Necked Ducks this AM which I reported seeing yesterday, but did find 4 Ruddy Ducks, 2 Buffleheads and a Pied-Billed Grebe. Coots are still around in increasing numbers. I counted 250 today. There were lots of songbirds in and around the visitors' center picnic grounds including a Winter Wren, a Y-B Sapsucker and a flock of 50 E. Bluebirds. Ralph Wall Great Falls, Va.
