I headed over to Fort Lowell Park a couple of days ago in search of a "Storm Wigeon" that was reported. There is some debate about the "Storm Wigeon." Is it a separate species of American Wigeon? Or just an American Wigeon with plain white cheeks (no freckles). Unfortunately, I have nothing to show you because all I found were American Wigeons.
However, there were some photographs to take.
First several Double Crested Cormorants were constantly feeding. Here's one:

As with most municipal parks, hybrid ducks and geese seem to be present. Here a Mallard Duck is trying to add to the hybrid population:

Here is one of those hybrid ducks -- actually quite beautiful:
