Hi all Just a quick note to report that on  Sat Dec  5, 05   at the Rt  
309  Pond  about   1 mile from Rt 213   near Centreville  Maryland .It  held 
Lots of Canada Geese ,  1 Cackling Goose, Gadwall 1 , many Mallards and  
about 46 Black Ducks.     In the middle of all this action  was one lone  
female  Longtailed Duck  it seemed  a little shy  and was chased about by 
the  Geese at times.     Long Tailed Ducks are quite common in  Maryland  
and  Queen Annes County  in the Bay  and large parts of the rivers in the 
area .   But this was a first time  for me seeing one in a pond  inland .


Happy Birding
