I made it to Waitsboro yesterday afternoon with about an hour of light
to scan the area. The Western Grebe had lots of company; it seemed to be
resting peacefully amidst a fairly large raft of mostly divers. There
were approx. 1000 birds strewn around the bend. The same species I was
able to ID were still present today, except the Red-breasted Mergansers
were gone and the number of birds was down.
