I checked out the ponds on Rt. 309 between Rt. 213 and Rt. 404 this 
morning.  Of note are the following:
     10 Meadowlarks in one field
    
After leaving Rt. 213, the first pond on the left on 309 had the following:
     Many, many Canada Geese
     25 Ruddy Ducks
     2 Gadwall
     10 Coots
     2 Ring-necked Ducks
     1 CATTLE EGRET in the field on the far side of the pond

Note:  The farmer who owns the pond is not birder friendly.  Just bird from the 
road.
