overcast, windy and cold. The afternoon was steady rain so we didn’t scope some
of the wet spots. Shorebirds were seen in several locations with Open pond
producing the greatest numbers including 48 Long billed dowitchers.
Sixteen Bald eagles were counted, many on nests. Ducks were plentiful highest
numbers were Northern shovelers and Green-winged teal.
Several of the fields that once held water have new ditches so they are
draining and will not offer habitat to the migrants.
