Hi everyone,

I made a morning trip to Perryville Community Park in Cecil County.  There
were lots and lots of waterfowl present in Mill Creek (the little bay on
your left as you drive into the park), including:  (all counts are
estimates)

Wood duck-11
Am Black Duck-3
Mallard-13
Ring Necked Duck- 150
Am Wigeon-50
Canvasback-10
N Shoveler- 5

Canada Geese- 4-500 (maybe more)
Snow Geese- 9 (way out on the opposite shore)

Coot- 200
Pie Billed Grebe- 27

Plus non-waterfowl including:

Bald Eagle- 3
Kingfisher-1
Hermit Thrush-1
Brown Creeper-1

It was a great morning to bird there, except for the wind threatening to
blow the scope and camera away.
