Birder Neil Maruca reports: Pre-work stop by at Mehrhof Pond in Little Ferry this morning yielded 2 adult and an immature Bald Eagle in the tall deciduous trees on the western edge of the pond.
No Ruddy Ducks, most likely because they being used as snack sized tidbits for the eagles.
Also present were Great Cormorant, Hooded & Common Merganser, 46 Lesser Scaup in 2 rafts, and 3 Ring-Necked Ducks.
(Photo was taken last week by the Hackensack River in Hackensack.)
