Flooded fields are filling with Mallards, Ring-necked Ducks, Northern Shovellers, Northern Pintails, and Canada Geese. Bufflehead, Common and Hooded Mergansers can be found on inland creeks and rivers that have opened up. There are Tundra Swans in the field off Bruce Road 3 just south of Burgoyne. Turkey Vultures and Northern Harriers are floating over the fields and an Eastern Phoebe is flycatching outside my window as I work.
