Another Afternoon Pond Run ~ April 14, 2024

I headed over to Green Pond in the mid-afternoon. The four Blue-winged Teal continued in the flooded field area.

Two Ring-necked Ducks were in the retention pond along Farmersville Road. Around the perimeter of that pond were 2 Eastern Bluebirds and 2 Palm Warblers. A Great Blue Heron, an Osprey, and 3 Northern Rough-winged Swallows were seen flying around, too.

A Greater Yellowlegs, a Lesser Yellowlegs, and 2 Killdeer were at the Newburg Park retention pond.

The flooded field by the Christian Springs Road pond held 6 Greater Yellowlegs.

The Wilson's Snipe that I saw yesterday at the Hollo Road retention pond was still there.
Four Northern Rough-winged Swallows were feeding over the pond while a Red-tailed Hawk flew overhead.

In one small tree next to the pond, I saw my first-of-the-year Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.
