["Scott & Glenda Record" <sgrecord@xxxxxxxx>]

Highlights of the past few days include an increase in waterfowl numbers in 
Ballard county.  Totals are up but several common dabblers are absent or in 
very low numbers.  The biggest increases are in Snow and Canada Geese and 
Mallard and Ring-necked ducks.  Lapland longspurs have been reliably seen at 
the Smokey road feedlot in Ballard county for the past week but I have not seen 
any Brewer's blackbirds there since the 31st of December.  Birds of interest 
seen today at Ballard and the dams area include:
Gr-Wh-fronted Goose
Snow Goose
Canada Goose
Wood Duck
American Black Duck
Mallard
Northern Shoveler
Gadwall
American Widgeon
