Connetquot State Park, Oakdale

I stopped by Connetquot State Park to check out the waterfowl on the pond - found a drake Northern Pintail, a large flock of Gadwall with Ring Necked Ducks mixed in and a single Lesser Scaup. Mute Swans, Mallards and a Great Blue Heron were also present.  On the pond closer to Sunrise Highway I saw a pair of Northern Shovelers and possibly a hybrid Eurasian Wigeon but could not re-locate it to confirm.
