Today I thought I'd visit some Sloughs areas that I have been
neglecting recently.

6:30am to 4pm
55º overcast w/light rain, rain was over by 8, by 2 it was partly
sunny, rising to 65º
In order I visited Cape Hills Unit until 1, then 268 slough,
Horseshoe Road slough, Grassy Pond/Powell's Lake Unit
FOS:
Wood duck family

Golden-winged W. 2
Tennessee W. 25??
Chestnut-sided W.
Bay-breasted W.
Kentucky W.

Other Highlights:

Semipalmated Plovers (everywhere there was water)

Chipping Sparrow
13 diff. warbler sp.
A pair of Mallards at Horseshoe Road slough
Total species for the day: 81.
Tennessee W. were singing like mad but almost impossible to see. Very
stealthy. The only rare glimpses I got was when they weren't singing.
They were everywhere in Cape Hills.
