Rescued this Redhead today. It had a fishhook in its bill / face, and the fishing line it was attached to was frozen into the ice and the bird was trapped. Captured the bird, broke the fishing line, and then, with a friend, cut the fishhook in half and removed it from the duck's bill / face. It seemed vigorous and healthy. When we released it, it flew away strong and fast. Good deed done.

I took this photo mainly to show what the two tunnels I search look like. Several of 35 +/- were present in this pedestrian tunnel (#1).
Images of two pedestrian tunnels in close proximity to each other can be seen here:

The iced over tunnel has been flooded since fall. I see no evidence of moths (though one was seen in Sept near the west end of tunnel). It contained 15 specimens of The Herald last winter.
Edit: A more accurate count with a flashlight revealed that there were exactly 35. All 35 overwintered there. My constant watches over them (about every 7 to 14 days or so) suggested to me that they all survived the winter. Interestingly they did not all leave at the same time or ever close to it. Some remained for a good month longer than others.

I had been trying and failing to get some pic's of a Stellar's Jay for about 5 minutes in the shade of this same tree and had that "being watched" feeling. He was about 10 feet up the tree and never budged for the 10 minutes I was there
