Between 8:10 and 9:20 this morning – hoping to be able to see what I could not see yesterday, i.e., whether or not digit I (= hallux) is present on the left foot – I was at the Albany sewage ponds; however, I did not see yesterday’s adult male Tufted Duck. I *did* check all four ponds there, though I note that some portions of the NE and NW ponds are impossible to see; also, for whatever it’s worth, the duck arrived at about 10 AM yesterday from some other location – flew in from the south – so I suppose a repeat performance is conceivable.
