[Birdnet] Eurasian Wigeon

[Carol Nelson]

The Eurasian Wigeon surprised me today with an appearance under my feeders.  He was grazing with a large flock of American Wigeons.  Milt arrived in time to see him, but the flock flew back to the pond before anyone else arrived.  We all tried to relocate him again, but to no avail.  The backlighting of the sun made ID difficult.  Perhaps this week with snow still on the golf course, and warmer temperatures predicted, the ice on the ponds will recede some more, and he'll stick around a while.  If you are interested in seeing him, my home is open if I am here.  If I'm not the south gate will be unlocked and you are welcome to use my patio at any time.  If you want to know if the flock is in, you may call me at 362-8288.  If you want to just come, do so.  My address is 2831 N. Marrcrest West, Provo.  (Turn west off University Ave. at about 2900 North. Provo.  I'm on the west side of the Marrcrest circle, the only one level red brick, with white shutters.)
