Buffleheads at Greenbury Point

The promised rain/snow hadn’t materialized by 9:00, so I decided to take a chance and see what was going on at Possum Point/Greenbury Point.
It was really too cloudy for decent photos, but I had nothing else to do, and there’s always a chance of getting lucky.
There were many active Cedar Waxwings, and plenty of ducks. I did see a nice hawk, but had no opportunity to get a photo.
