Hola all, 

Paula Sullivan just called me to say that she and Sharon Lynn saw a male Eurasian Wigeon at Piscataway Park earlier today.  Sharon found it; they were standing on the boardwalk that leads from the parking lot to the place where the Mississippi Kites were seen this past summer.  The bird was with bunches of ducks, including Hooded and Common Mergansers, Lesser Scaup, and Ruddy Ducks.  It was on the Virginia, western side of the boardwalk, and if I recall correctly was not all that far from the boardwalk.  

I would post more precise details and road names but we're about to head out the door.  Searching the listserv archives should pull up all that information fairly quickly.  

Best,
