We accumulated this short list that is worth posting only because this is my first Fall 2003 sighting of the Ring-Necked Duck and the Merlin. I only see the Ring-necked Ducks here for some reason. The Merlin returned about three times to the same tree by the red footbridge. The Flicker posed for us until we got bored, which took awhile, even in the growing heat. Very bright red on the face and back of the neck. The Flicker even spread open a wing to reveal the red shafted wing. A few Yellow-Rumped Warblers shared the Euc. next to Oca Lane with the Flicker. We were then defeated by the heat.
