It was a "great" day in more ways than one today. Went NW to the Water Valley area today looking for a couple specific birds. Found both of them as well as a few others.

I mistakenly ID'd these guys as Lesser Scaups, they are actually Ring-necked Ducks, another first time bird for me today. Seen near Water Valley.
