Winter is a great time for waterfowl at Lake Padden. You can expect to find mallards, American wigeons, ring-necked ducks and buffleheads among others. In past years, more uncommon species such as Eurasian wigeon and redhead have been present. And there are always a few woodpeckers and an abundance of passerines, such as sparrows, juncos, chickadees, wrens, nuthatches and brown creepers to search for on the trails surrounding the lake.
