Dragon flies were plentiful around the pond. The medium sized ones with maroon tails. They seem late every year. I saw what I took to be a Yellow-billed Cuchoo. It was the size of a mourning dove and about the same color. But its bill was curved downward, was yellow and quite large. The tail was long. I haven't seen these birds but I think they are present here. It was sitting in a bunch of bushes then dropped to the ground were it was out of sight. A large flock of Geese swept overhead making a big racket as they headed south. There was 100+ in the flock. Also lots of grebes. Horned all along the shore - 25 to 30. A flock of 10 red necked grebes was at the end. One was still in partial summer plumage. Cockawees, Buffleheads, Blacks and Mallards were all there in small numbers. A great day Paul ---1663062914-489719427-1415663536=:18248 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:14px"><div id="yiv7029713926"><div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><div id="yiv7029713926yui_3_16_0_5_1409514949786_4"><span></span></div> <div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yiv7029713926yqt3091515543" id="yiv7029713926yqt26018"><div class="yiv7029713926yahoo_quoted" id="yiv7029713926yui_3_16_0_5_1409514949786_6" style="display: block;"> <div class="yiv7029713926ms__id13855" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> <div class="yiv7029713926ms__id13856" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> .Hi All</font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">It was such a lovey day I spent the afternoon on Graves.</font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">Lots of interesting things.</font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">Dragon flies were plentiful around the pond.
