The ice is all gone at Bradford Beach and North Point. Now all we need is to
have a nice algae mat develop in advance of shorebird migration.
* Still quite a few ducks hanging around, but just the usual suspects: Scaups,
Goldeneyes, Buffleheads, Red-breasted Mergansers, Mallards. Many of them
swimming very close to shore.
* I did have one new 2011 walking BIGBY species. There was a Common Loon diving
off of Bradford Beach. That's BIGBY species #76 for the year.
* Saw a Cooper's Hawk making a late lunch of a small animal. Got some nice
close-up views. Too bad my camera's being repaired. :-(
