There are hundreds and hundreds of Northern Shovelers present at the Village Creek Drying Beds in Arlington, Texas right now. The biggest congregation is in the first tank to the east as you come on to the property, but there are shovelers in nearly every pond and puddle of water to be found at the VCBD.
