There are always some ducks at Blair Pond, and the hoodie will likely be there a while.

There are between 12-20 mallards as year-round residents on Blair Pond. They are fed daily by some people who work near there. The hooded merganser is likely the same one who has wintered at Blair the past couple of years, so will likely be there until April. Wood ducks are only sporadically there, so don't count on the cooperative drake staying. In the fall there are sometimes other dabblers such as green wing teal and black ducks.
