Just took some food down to Red Bridge Pond. 'Vogel' was present along with the Am. Coot. There was a mad rush for the offerings by the Mallards & Widgeons and the Coot. The Gallinule sailed in a few minutes later. Looked good & bright but didn't go towards the offerings at that time, though was staying in the area.
Did notice 2 either Red-tailed Hawks or Immature Bald Eagles high in the air just above the Daycare center staying almost stationary. One swooped and did an aerial tackle of the other one at one point. 
As well, there was a large (I think) muskrat swimming just at the edge of the outer reeds before disappearing under the ice. 

Sincerely,

Gayle MacLean
