Better weather today than Sunday. And better results. Alison and I located the 
Red-necked Grebe preening in about the middle of the lake as we walked along 
the bank not far from the tennis courts.  Also saw 7 Pied-billed Grebes & 2 
Blue-winged Teals while there. A pair of Canada Geese were guarding the foot 
bridge as we made our partial circle starting from the park headquarters lot 
and a Robin was guarding the same bridge on the return walk. Many Canada Geese 
were arguing over prime island territory.
        We also stopped briefly at McElroy Lake. Didn't attempt to do a walk 
around in my town shoes but did manage to see a few birds. - Blue-winged Teals, 
Northern Shovelers, Mallards, Pectoral Sandpipers, Wilson's Snipes a Northern 
Harrier, 2 Pied-billed Grebes, an unidentified large falcon, and a Bald Eagle 
harassing a raft of Coots. Grebes & eagle here -
