We stopped at the Wellington UpGround Reservoir this morning. There were no geese on the reservoir, but we could hear a few calling -- must have left to feed for the day. We found Gadwall, American Wigeon, American Black Duck, Mallard, Canvasback, Redhead, Lesser Scaup, Bufflehead, Common Goldeneye, Hooded Merganser, Red-breasted Merganser, Ruddy Duck, and American Coot. There was a lone Bonaparte's Gull along with one Herring Gull and numerous Ring-billed Gulls. There was quite a bit of open water on the reservoir and it will, no doubt, expand with the warmer weather.
