Of similar significance was the presence of a Merlin on the Pine Ridge. Rosche noted that some species of water-birds began nesting activities much earlier than normal in w NE. Little information was received on the following dabbling ducks, all of which are regular nesters in some numbers in sandhill marshes and, in some cases, the Rainwater Basin and elsewhere: Mallard, Northern pintail, Blue-winged Teal, Northern Shoveler, Gadwall, and American Wigeon; I assume that this means that numbers were as expected by observers and that none were noted out of their normal summer ranges, i.e. a "normal" year.
