I had some time before work this morning so I went back to Ketcham's Creek for a reported Eurasian/ Green Winged Teal that was probably only found because of the attention surrounding the Mottled Duck. The Mottled Duck was not present when I went this morning but was lucky enough to find the hybrid teal - the white lateral line wasn't too dramatic but distinctive enough to make a proper ID. On the way out, I heard but did not see a continuing White Eyed Vireo and some Monk Parakeets that set up nests on the light poles on Merrick Road.
