    I saw these birds yesterday while doing a trap line at the Quarry – I thought they looked a bit special – a duck hunter friend tells me they are a good example of Grey Ducks with very little sign of Mallard hybridization
    Heavy rain flushes out unusual sediments from the old Quarry and the water turns almost white for a few days.
