[birdky] Re: Sunday Sloughs: Hermit Not Swainson's

Sorry folks,

As Brainard pointed out to me, the Swainson's Thrushes were Hermits.

8:30 to 12:30AM
28º clear, rising to 50º
Wood Tract north of 268 at 8:30 and 12:30 : Frozen - no ducks or geese or swans Some activity south of 268 but I didn't bother trying to look into the sun.

I birded this with my Blaze Orange cap as deer hunters were leaving for the day. 
Highlights:
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
both Kinglets
Swainson's Thrush 3

Uniontown Dam (Union Co.)
Big change from Monday: now only 20 Ring-billed Gulls above the dam - On Monday there were thousands above and below the dam. 
1 juv. Bald Eagle
Turkey Vultures 5


Looks like I should have birded Wood Tract Saturday with Ben and Mary.
Seemed like a traffic jam on 268 with all the Goose Hunters running around on opening day. 
The normally deserted boat ramp had about 8 trucks parked at it.
