The numbers of waterfowl were a bit lower than we often see at this time of year, but many of the ones we saw were close enough to shore for good viewing (but not necessarily good photographs). The biggest factor affecting the comfort of the participants at these walks is usually the wind. Fortunately it was light, creating good viewing conditions and virtually no wind chill. Still, after more than two hours out in the cold, many people were ready to warm up at Birds & Beans.
