At home, I noticed a raptor circling with a Turkey Vulture that deserved a look. It turned out to be an adult Red-shouldered Hawk migrating towards the northeast. I grabbed some poor photos before it disappeared behind some trees.
The flooded field near Green Pond produced 18 Green-winged Teal, a Killdeer, and a Northern Harrier that patrolled the area before heading off to the north.
The adjacent retention pond held 2 Snow Geese and 2 American Black Ducks while 14 Red-winged Blackbirds were at the little pond by the intersection.
Over at the Regency Boulevard retention ponds, 19 Buffleheads and a Ring-necked Duck were in the north pond. On the little spit by the gatehouse, a Wilson's Snipe was resting with a couple Killdeer.
At the south pond, I eventually found three more Wilson's Snipe. One of the birds flew over to join the other two and gave me the chance to get these photos as it came in for a landing.
Also in the south pond were the continuing two male Blue-winged Teal and several more Killdeer.
