Looks like Big Rig and Silly Putz are sidelined today. Better stay in your basements boys, it's safer there.
Up top it's quiet and calm; a rain last night settled the air over Green Bay creating perfect conditions this morning for viewing ducks -- had all the dabblers except Green-winged Teal (where did they go?) and Wood Duck.. Great looks at Gadwall (8 birds) and a couple of drake Northern Shovelers (#74 and my last dabbler for the year).
Though a little anti-climatic, a Double-crested Cormorant provided #75 and a brand new perspective on this exercise. Undoubtably, the lead will be short-lived - I have seen the ugly side of War. The trend however is clear and the facts undeniable; Global Warming is no big deal.
C'mon Warndog, somebody has to help us tame the beast. What say another 12 pack tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I took Fitzy's advice and stood outside in the rain to try to get my first ever non-MALL/WODU/HOME, and did have 3 dabblers go by up high. Didn't get a definitive ID (short look), but they looked OK for MALL. Will keep tryin...
Swampy, you are right that Big Rig and Putzman will need to stay inside today but as for ME? Even though I'm in the midst of the same storms, I don't fear them so I appreaciate you leaving my name off that list of "Scaredy Cats".
ReplyDeleteCurtis, I'd never group you with those other two, I see how you hang.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I'd fault you for is you're friends with Caleb, but hey we all makes mistakes.
that one in particular.....
ReplyDeleteI'll may give you a little line before I reel you in. Just wait, its going to be emotionally damaging. Steel yourself in preparation.
ReplyDeleteSounds like we may have need of a FOCA group - I'll let you figure ot the acronym. When's the first meeting? I'll bring the drinks.
ReplyDeleteFriends of CAleb?
