Not since it was last reported earlier in the day. Several individuals including myself covered Ketchum’s Creek and other local spots at various times throughout the day but the Mottled Duck (MODU) was a no show.
Nevertheless, I did enjoy my 3 hour + vigil at Ketchum’s, meeting with faces that I had not see in years and some new, including Ernst Mutchnick, the finder of what would be NY’s first record, pending NYSARC approval. All reports positive or negative would be appreciated and many thanks to those who have done so.
