On this wonderful, unexpectedly warm last day in January, I took a ride to Bombay Hook National Refuge to look for a few winter ducks. The numbers weren't impressive, but I saw a good number of species. In just under one hour here is what I saw: Snow Geese, Canada Geese, Pintail, Gadwall, American Avocet, Black-Necked Stilt, Greater Yellow Legs, Tundra Swan, Bufflehead, Blue-Winged Teal, Mallard, American Coot, Northern Shoveler, Northern Harrier, Pied-Billed Grebe, Black Duck, Great Blue Heron, Black Vulture, Cedar Waxwings, American Robin, Mourning Dove, Bald Eagle.
