Greetings All:

This has been a rough week for me with multiple visits to doctors and such but 
I have made lemonade from lemons, to the fullest extent possible, by looking at 
birds as I wandered about town.

On Monday (17 February 2014) I spent a little time at Whisperwood Pond and 
noted the following highlights: 2 Snow Geese, 2 Wood Ducks, and 6 male 
Canvasbacks.  Canvasback had eluded me so far this year, in the LEAS region, 
and they were well worth doubling back for.

On Tuesday (18 February 2014) I spotted a gorgeous male Blue-winged Teal in the 
little pond next the the United at 19th and Quaker.  I also had 1 Snow Goose at 
Maxey Park, 7 Cedar Waxwings in the vicinity of Quaker and 16th, and 1 
Orange-crowned Warbler in my front yard.
