Breaking news!
Cheryl went looking for our ‘fancy ducks’ this morning and sends this photo of last nights beaver-chew party. She says everyone enjoyed the otter putting on a show at Starbucks and up and down the creek, catching big fish each time he dove. Photos to follow!
Check out our new Christmas visitors to the dam site! It’s a male (left) and female (right) pair of hooded mergansers. These are obligate nestors who may have come to inspect the wood duck boxes Mitchel installed. If we’re lucky they just might stick around. A trio of young birds came on valentine’s two years ago I’m guessing they were emissaries checking the place out. Apparently they liked what they saw.
Here’s hoping we see these someday….
