I took part in the annual DEC waterfowl count today, and our party counted more than 20,000 Redhead and associated Aythyas between Long Point and the ice edge at Union Springs. They weren’t in 1 or 2 massive flocks as in past years, but rather in many many flocks of 1-3,000. Thousands of Canada Geese, mergansers and other ducks as well – it was quite a spectacular morning.
