Visits to Arrow Lake near Mt. Pleasant and the Solutia (formerly  
Monsanto) area NW of Columbia today (Nov. 2, 2006) found that the  
waterfowl are definitely arriving, and some shorebirds remain.   
Shorebirds were all at Arrow Lake; Robert's Bend Rd Hogwallow was a  
bust, not even a Killdeer.  Totals for water birds --

Canada Goose   3 (Solutia)
Gadwall   3 (Arrow)
American Wigeon   4 (Arrow)
Mallard   10 (Solutia)
Northern Pintail   1 (Arrow)
Ring-necked Duck   26 (Solutia)
Lesser Scaup   51
Bufflehead   4 (Solutia)
Hooded Merganser   6 (Solutia)
Ruddy Duck   14
Pied-billed Grebe   2 (Arrow)
Double-crested Cormorant   11
Great Blue Heron   10
Great Egret   1 (Arrow)
American Coot   5 (Solutia)
Killdeer   38
Greater Yellowlegs   3
Lesser Yellowlegs   1
Long-billed Dowitcher   1
Least Sandpiper   8
American Pipit   1 (Solutia)

Lighting at Arrow Lake was poor as usual, but IDs of peeps and  
dowitcher were confirmed by their calls when something unseen got the  
flock up.
