WIR 12/7-12/13

Wednesday 12/7: Two new commute birds: the Redhead at Cambridge Res and something at NAC.

Thursday 12/8: Nothing exciting at the Wayland gardens.

Friday 12/9: Nothing at West Meadow.

Saturday 12/10: Too windy, but looped the Mystic Lakes, Spy Pond, Clay Pit, and Beaver Brook without much (did get overdue first Ring-necked Ducks for Belmont).

Sunday 12/11: Waited until it got above 20, then went to Dunback. Nothing in the pines, but the Western Tanager was a pleasant surprise. Twelve species of waterfowl on the res included 2 pintails.

Monday 12/12: Red-bellied at the feeders for the first time a a long time.

Tuesday 12/13: Not much of anything from Moody to Prospect. Had enough time after that to hit Forest Grove, where there were 3 Gadwall in the opening by the pump house.
