Our local parks are closed on Tuesdays, so I took another stab at Sandy Point this morning.

I arrived about noon, and noticed that the ice had blown onshore in the last two days. The ducks weren’t as numerous, but the merganser was a nice find.

This image of the Lighthouse gives an idea of how much ice there is.

Several Ruddy Ducks were feeding close to shore.

There were large flocks of Lesser Scaup out in the bay.

This Red Breasted Merganser was feeding with a flock of Lesser Scaup.
