Gerry Vrbensky sent me this photo yesterday of a duck for which he =
didn't recognize from Sullivans Pond Dartmouth. Anyone who checks out =
the flyer packs in the HRM and the great photos that he submits on =
occasion in the Community Herald may recognize his name:

After identifying the duck as a male Green-winged Teal for him, I head =
on over to see if I could locate it, and I had no trouble, as it was =
initially wandering the grass near the benches just past the gazebo =
bandstand. Here are a few more pics of this very co-operative teal:

Upon returning home near Red Bridge Pond, the Caspian Tern was searching =
the Pond  at 5:45 P.M. before gaining a fairly high altitude and =
disappearing in the distance.
