    Taken Nov. 24, 2018 at Centerton Fish Hatchery, Northwest Arkansas. A flock of these birds were working the muddy bottom of a recently drained fish pond. https://flic.kr/p/R2rfF3

    Taken Nov. 24, Charlie Craig Fish Hatchery, Centerton (Northwest) Arkansas. In a pond with Ring-necked, Gadwall, and Mallard ducks. IBird Sleuth says probably a Common Goldeneye. It doesn't have the white patch on the head, would this be non-breeding? https://flic.kr/p/2da6rpV

    The shot of the bill is not as good, but this one shows the comparative size and neck length. https://flic.kr/p/QR1D3C

    Taken Nov. 17, 2018 at a lake in Central Arkansas where Trumpeter Swans winter. This one was swimming with a flock of at least 50 Trumpeter Swans. Word was out that there was a Tundra Swan mixed in there, and it took me all day, but I think I found it. Tundra Swan? https://flic.kr/p/2bA5YBX

    Taken Nov. 17, 2018, at ponds where Trumpeter Swans and Canada Geese winter (Central Arkansas). This one was noticeably smaller than the others, and the bill looks "stubby". Could this be a Cackling Goose? https://flic.kr/p/2bA4LWK

    Large pasture in North Central Arkansas, Nov. 10, 2018. When I saw them coming, I thought it was a flock of migrating ducks or geese, but when they circled the pasture, I figured I was wrong. They look a little larger than a crow, but not hawk size. Seems to be some color on the head. Thank you for any help you can give. https://flic.kr/p/2cNDTSB

    Cranfield COE Park, Lake Norfork, North Central Arkansas, Nov. 5, 2018. This one was in a small flock of birds working the treetops at the Lake.. Their actions look like flycatchers. The day was rainy and they were too far away for a clear shot. I hope this is enough. https://flic.kr/p/2bi6K4V https://flic.kr/p/2cFSRZz

    In a city park, North Central Arkansas, Oct. 30, 2018. The second shot looks like an eye ring, but it may just be angle and the light. https://flic.kr/p/QoDFby https://flic.kr/p/2cs2KN3

    Thank you! That was my first thought, but I thought the bill would be longer and have a downward turn. The eyes should have told me.

    Brush pile setting, next to a city park, North Central Arkansas, Oct. 29, 2018. Dark on the back of the head is probably a shadow. https://flic.kr/p/2b7VVp4

    A flock of these birds landed in McCabe City Park, North Central Arkansas. I don't think I have seen them here before. Could be migration? Taken Oct. 26, 2018 https://flic.kr/p/2b2T31g

    I took a lot of the shadows out of this shot. It shows part of a dark wing and white on the end of the tail underside .... https://flic.kr/p/QcBvrd

    Don't have one of the legs, but here is more of a profile .... https://flic.kr/p/2cfX72f

    I'm guessing from the "belly band", but I've never seen any hawk with this much white. Hwy. 62, Northeast Arkansas, next to open pasture. Taken Oct. 22, 2018 https://flic.kr/p/2cfVvMf

    Taken in a city park in Northeast Arkansas, Oct. 22, 2018. I get suspicious when there are a lot of Mallards around, but this one was off by itself, and never joined the rest. https://flic.kr/p/2cfPpbm https://flic.kr/p/29yHbzA
