Hydrology monitoring started this past Thursday.
Water table is lower than last spring.
Good numbers of frogs. Simply Amazing!
Small numbers of waterfowl are here nesting.
Hearing several roosters and seeing one nice group of hens.
I am limiting my visits to RWB to Thursday's when I monitor on foot.
No amazing photo's yet.....

Snows and Blues are here.
Now is the time to bird for Waterfowl!
Snows, blues, Canada's and a wide mix of ducks are roosting on Basins B and C.
We may have disturbed Basin A, the wetland closest to the house.
Thousands of waterfowl were on it until 5pm when somebody took Araila for a stroller ride.
It was great while it lasted. Some will be back tomorrow.
It was fun to watch the snow geese descend by the thousands into B and C.
It's anyone's guess how many birds there actually were. Thousands........
Bird watching tip: When watching waterfowl (Snow geese) keep the car rolling. They tend to take wing when you stop and stare at them. Snow geese are scared of most anything. Last year, I stopped to put the spotting scope on the window and all of the birds in Basin B nearly 1/2 mile away got up. It happens to the best of us.
Get out and watch the waterfowl.
All you need is a drivers liscence and you don't have to eat'em.
They are only here for a few day.

Spring has arrived here at RWB. All three basins now have open water. The waterfowl migration is here in force. Thousands of ducks and geese are enjoying the basins and we are enjoying watching them from our house. It's like living in a luxury duck blind.
