I went over to Larry & Penny Thompson Park this morning seeking Ring-necked Duck and Lark Sparrow for my year list. I found 6 Ring-necks, along with a Ruddy Duck and the Common Loon that had been reported previously (yes, it's still around). Keep in mind that these waterfowl sometimes spend time on nearby lakes such as those in Metrozoo.

Two Lark Sparrows were found under & in the small trees in the SE corner of the field by shelters 2-4, bringing my FL year list to 173. Other birds present included Waxwing, Robin, Flicker, and Towhee.
