Hi MDOsprey,
 
Walked the Potomac Heritage Trail from Turkey Run to the AM Legion Bridge this morning.  Bufflehead and Ring-necked ducks abundant last week were not found today, but were replaced by Wood Ducks, Green-winged Teal and one Red-necked Grebe (200 yds down river from the bridge).  Beautiful weather and singing birds.
