First time I&#8217;ve ever gone over $50.00 on a fill-up. $3.47\/gal. That&#8217;s slowing me down a bit, but there&#8217;s plenty of good birds close to home.<\/p>\n<p>The main attraction has been waterfowl, of course, with\u00a0 the Thomas Point Swans and ducks in big numbers, but we&#8217;ve gotten some thawing recently, so other ducks are showing up in the coves.\u00a0 The Canvasbacks were largely driven out by the ice for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Possum Point has been largely non-productive, which\u00a0 is consistent with other places in this too-warm season. Maybe February will bring us some sea ducks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughvandervoort.com\/?attachment_id=46188\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-46188\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"
