Eagle Crest was beautiful yesterday evening, lush, green, and full of life.  
Dickcissels were new arrivals, and I heard a Le Conte's Sparrow near the pond 
overlook spot.  All the regular species were there, including Savannah and 
Grasshopper Sparrows, Bobolinks, Western (maybe two this year) and Eastern 
Meadowlarks, Pheasants, several Orchard Orioles, Sedge Wrens, and a few 
Yellow-headed Blackbirds at the ponds at the south end. Dummer's pond had 
single drake Green-winged Teal, Redhead, L. Scaup, and Canvasback, a few 
Ruddies, and a pair of Wigeon. There are no nesting records hereabouts for 
Wigeon to my knowledge, so it will be interesting to see if this pair stays to 
nest.
