La Presa, Tequisquiapan

Short afternoon stroll around La Presa in Tequisquiapan yesterday. Still huge numbers of duck present:

Shoveler 10,000?

Pintail 200

Blue-winged Teal 100

Green-winged Teal 50

Gadwall 30

American Wigeon 15

Ruddy Duck 400

And I covered less than half of the lake. Still plenty of Eared Grebes (50) and a few Least Grebes around. White-faced Ibis, Great, Snowy and Cattle Egret and the usual birds in the scrub including good numbers of Blue Grosbeaks flocking with Lark Sparrows.

Highlights perhaps splendid views of an inquisitive Ruby-crowned Kinglet and a male Varied Bunting..
