After some early morning business, and feeling better compared to  
last week and early this one, I birded by way down to the Arlington  
ponds, Pheasant Branch etc.
Highlights included 8 Greater and 1 Lesser Yellowlegs on the 26 pond  
(south of Rosendale).  Breezy Pt pond had only standard birds and not  
many at that.

The Harvey/DM pond was good.  2 Dunlins were along the west side of  
Harvey.  On the pond, more toward the middle and east end were 5  
Bonaparte's Gulls, 150+ Gr White-fronted Geese, about 50 Cackling  
Geese and 1 Ross's Goose.  The latter was on the east end.  There was  
still a nice variety of ducks.

Goose Pond is open and had 1 Ross's Goose on the east side, amongst  
the Canadas.

On Osprey was circling over the junction of Patton Rd and DM.

Pheasant Branch was rather quiet.  Single Y-b Sapsucker, Yellow- 
rumped Warbler, Phoebe and Tufted Titmouse were seen, but little else.

86 species for the enjoyable day.
