Waterfowl Start Heading South
As the weather cools down in the fall, waterfowl action heats up in the Lowcountry. After spending the warm summer months in breeding areas to the north, migratory waterfowl head back down the coast to spend the winter in our island ponds and salt marshes. Common species include Hooded and Red-Breasted Mergansers, Bufflehead, Lesser Scaup, and Black Scoters.
