MD Osprey:

Just got back from seeing the ducks at the previously posted location.

Unfortunately, they took flight at 8:51 pm, just as darkness was 
setting in. Unfortunately neither Hans Holbrook nor I saw which way 
they flew ... we were busy directing in Stan Arnold and Elaine, just 
so they could missed the birds by less than a minute (!!!)

Both halluces (I had to look that one up!) on both birds looked 
natural/normal and the birds seemed appropriately wary.

There are other ponds in the area, it's probably worth checking them 
in the morning.

I'll post some more information later this evening.

Phil
