Today, I visited Lake Herndon in Logan County and Guthrie Swamp in Southern
Todd County.

 

At the time of observation of Lake Herndon, snow was falling and the wind
was blowing.  Additionally, the birds were to the south and the sun was an
issue.  However, I did observe:

 

Canada Goose, ~60

Gadwall, 6

American Wigeon, 1

Mallard, ~20

American Coot, 6 &

Hermit Thrush, 1.

 

At the southern basins of Guthrie Swamp, only 6 Ring-billed Gulls were
observed of note.  At the northeast basin, an adult Bald Eagle was observed
flying over the swamp.  Another adult Bald Eagle was observed perched near
the nest a short distance to the NE.  Nothing in/on the nest was observed.
However the wind was strong and snow and snow was falling lightly.

 

That concludes this report.
