Horned Grebes and 6 Red-breasted Mergansers. Also so a female Cooper's Hawk
and a Red-tail hawk.

Eagleville was a bust except for a American Kestrels. Probably got there
to late. Saw a beautiful adult Red-shouldered hawk on the way from Bedford
Co to Eagleville. Gorgeous!!!

Loggerhead Shrike, Red-tailed Hawk, several Am. Kestrels, and Killdeer.
hoped to see Horned Lark for Bedford list thought I heard one once but could
not find and did not here again(way it goes).
Good morning of birding. Cherry picked a few birds I needed for the year.
Good birding
