I had a few spare minutes and dropped in to the causeway to check on reservoirs 2&3 in Lexington. 9 Common Loons, in full summer plumage, stood out. 21 Red-breasted Mergansers, only 1 of which was male, were also seen. I also had my first of the year Northern Rough-winged Swallow. Needless to say I took more minutes than I had to spare and was late.
