Waterfowl are movin in!

As the weather gets colder and October draws to an end, more and more waterfowl are showing up here in PA. Last week I saw Ruddy Ducks and American Wigeons at Bald Eagle State Park, yesterday I found an American Black Duck at a pond near the PSU campus, and today I found a juvenile Redhead on a farm pond along 322. Try to get outside and check your local water bodies for some waterfowl!

Not a species of waterfowl, but Red-tailed Hawks like this one that I photographed flying over State College, are also on the move southwards.

  1. Nice one, Alex. I saw my lifer Black Duck at the Duck Pond! I've been meaning to check it more often, as there've been lots of good ducks there over the years.
