Re: Wood Ducks
No, but I have seen quite a bit of other waterfowl (mergansers, geese, loons, goldeneyes,swans, etc).
Woodducks sure are a pretty species and I love seeing them. They are also early migrators, so I think by early fall they maybe are already headed south from the island.

Re: Wood Ducks
This should take you to a checklist of IR birds.
