The Red-necked Grebe was still there this morning at 10:00 a.m.  It wasn't 
close in like Mike saw it, but it was clearly visible with a scope.  It was 
in the area near the public boat landing, which is off SR 640, however when I 
went to the boat landing I didn't see it.  So the best view was from where 
Mike describes.  I did not see any of the other species that Mike saw, except 
for a few gulls and an adult Bald Eagle perched in a tree at the edge of the 
water.
