Subject: First Black-bellied Whistling-Ducks in Morton Co. 5/6
Chad and Trish Remley earlier today, found four Black-bellied
Whistling-Ducks on a grain building in Elkhart in Morton County. Finally
late this afternoon, I refound them at Elkhart Golf Course pond, after
several times back and forth between this pond and sewer ponds. This should
be the first ones ever found in Morton County. I got photos of them. This
is my 300 bird species for Morton County too! My first trip there was in
fall of 1994, when I got to bird with Chris Hobbs, Sebastian Patti, Mick
McHugh and others. They introduced me to Morton County birding, and it has
been a fun place for me to visit for many years.
