04 September 2011:

I dropped by Guthrie swamp this afternoon on my way home from Metropolis.  I
scanned quickly and did not spend time searching as a thunderstorm
approached and lightening was quite near.  Observed were the following birds
of note:

  Blue-winged Teal, ~100, Northeast impoundment
  Northern Shoveler, 3, Northeast Impoundment
  Double-crested Cormorant, 2, South Impoundments
  Great Blue Heron, 4, South Impoundments
  Great Egret, 2, Northeast Impoundments
  Least Sandpiper, 4, Northeast Impoundments
  Forster's Tern, 7, South Impoundments
  
This report ignores resident Canada Geese, killdeer and a flock of mixed
swallows which were present but not counted or otherwise examined.

That concludes this report.
