Don't know about the species though. We are seeing more ducks than normal at the ponds. They like fish food. Strange that you mention this Ewest. The last time I was up at our property I observed several of our resident ducks whistling the theme from "The Bridge over the River Kwai". I tried to video tape the event but every time I pointed the video camera at them they just went back to normal duck behavior. I would put down the camera and once again the whistling would start. At one point the ducks were all marching in a straight line along the shoreline and whistling the song, it was almost as if they were taunting me. I would never have mentioned this but since you are reporting whistling ducks I felt, heck if Ewest is hearing whistling ducks then no one will be able to ridicule me for hearing whistling ducks.

A few of the things you post would be a little hard to believe, otherwise. (rolleyes) "Live like you'll die tomorrow, but manage your grass like you'll live forever." -S. M. Stirling

Say, did I ever tell you the story of the time I was in Pennsylvania and I came across a bear with a whistle?
