I checked out Menasha, Little Chute and Kaukauna this afternoon, plus
Shady Lane Rd (Rat River/Medina Jct area). On Little Lake Butte des
Morts among the numerous Herring Gulls were 1 Lesser Black-backed
Gull (ad), 2 Iceland Gulls (ads), and 1 Ring-billed Gull. By James
Is. 25+ cormorants were present. At Jefferson Park (Menasha) the
following were seen: 26 Ruddy Ducks, 1 Ring-necked Duck, 2 Lesser
Scaup, 2 Canvasbacks and 2 Buffleheads, plus the usual ducks. On the
ice way out was a Glaucous Gull (2nd yr).
Below the Little Chute dam the White Pelican was still present plus a
Coot, Hooded Merganser and about 10 cormorants. The number of geese
was greatly reduced from a week ago; all the gulls were Herrings.
Thousand Islands (Kaukauna) had its usual large number of gulls, all
Herrings, plus many eagles.
Along Shady Lane Rd late this afternoon were 14 Rough-legged Hawks, 9
Harriers, 1 Red-tailed Hawk plus briefly seen was 1 Short-eared Owl.
