More rainy-day birds

After I left Brush Hollow Res, I drove south a few miles to Florence to see if there were any other waterfowl had been brought in by the storm. I stopped at an large artificial pond at the Sumo Golf Course south of town (viewable from public streets).

Indeed, there were 30-40 Northern Shovelers, 3 Ruddy Ducks, 1 Redhead, 1 Pied-billed Grebe, 1 Great Blue Heron and some unidentifiable waterfowl curled up around the far shore. Nothing unusual, but an indication that wintering waterfowl are making their way into the area.
