where did all the divers go?



Birders,

Do any other inlanders feel like they have been short-ended on the diving
ducks this winter? I'm sure others have been out more than I have in recent
weeks in the Charlotte area and thus may have an experience contrary to
mine. So far, no Canvasbacks have shown up at University Place pond or Don
T. Howell reservoir (to my knowledge or experience). This weekend while
birding with some Mecklenburg Audubon folks I saw Buffleheads for the first
time this season at Cowan's Ford. Aside from Ruddies in the usual places,
its been a bummer thus far. What's the line on this subject in Raleigh,
Hickory, etc?...
