[Bristol-Birds] Rural Retreat Lake birds

I visited Rural Retreat Lake today with anticipation after last nights
storms but was somewhat disappointed.  I did find 5 Greater Yellowlegs,
1 Pectoral Sandpiper, 3 Common Snipe and 5 Killdeer.  Could only find
Field and Song Sparrows in the weed fields.  4 Ruddy Ducks, 2 Pied-bill
Grebes, 1 Hooded Merganser, 6 Lesser Scaup along with the usual Mallards
and Canada Geese were the only waterfowl, much less than has been there
during the past few weeks.
