Hi all,

Took a short walk after work this evening, down to the 15 Mile Creek
Aquaduct at Little Orleans.  Had a pair of HOODED MERGANSERS, WOOD DUCKS
(about 10), and lots of BLUEBIRD activity.  I was concentrating so hard on
the Mergansers, that I really didn't pay attention to the Bluebirds, but
they were really making quite a fuss!  Also, Canada Geese were on the river,
and the robins have returned here.  PHOEBES are also calling.  We did have a
pair of grebes on Tuesday.  Didn't have my scope out, but I'm guessing they
were PIED-BILLED GREBES.  Also, COMMON MERGANSERS (Pair) as well on 3/7.
Been a good week!
