We had 4-5″ of snow yesterday, so I didn’t get out at all. I was at Sandy Point at dawn today, but it didn’t look promising, so I went straight to Quiet Waters as I suspected Thomas Point would be closed for the snow, and  it was, as I found out later.

I looked in my favorite cove first, but didn’t find much, except a Common Goldeneye, the first I’ve seen there.

I did much better at the boat dock, where a Bald Eagle provided nice looks, and a few ducks were close enough for ID shots.

A view of South River.

A flock of Mallards flew out toward the river.

A small flock of Canada Geese flew upriver.

This is the first Common Goldeneye I’ve seen at Quiet Waters.

This Bald Eagle seemed to want to pose.
