Mark and I did a little checking around this morning and found 2 Sandhill Cranes feeding in a corn field off Grandview Lane at about 8:30 this morning. They were down near the river, so at a bit of distance. Got some photos, though. Note: when we went back around noon on the way home we didn't see them, though. After photographing the cranes we went to Lake Julian and Wayne Forsythe was there when we arrived and was looking at a White-winged Scoter that was pretty close to the shore. We also got some photos of that. We stayed there a while chatting with some other folks who arrived and the pair of Bald Eagles flew in and landed in a tree across the lake. Got some photos of them, too. Otherwise mostly the usual stuff. There was a Fish Crow at Lake Julian as well as a singing Pine Warbler. Nice morning! Photos attached.
