Did a quick check around the Lakefarm area. Swan pond had a single Wood Duck 
and quite a few canvasbacks. Larsen road was rather devoid of birds. Only a few 
teal of both species and a couple mallards. Had 6 Golden Crowned Kinglets, 4 
Common Loons, Buffleheads, Red Breasted Mergansers, and Lesser Scaup at 
Lakefarm. A short lap around Nine Springs turned into a chase after the Baird's 
Sandpipers. No Baird's, but there were a few Wilson's Snipe, Greater Yellowlegs 
and Pectoral Sandpipers and the usual ducks. The highlight of the day was 
accidentally sneaking up on a Greater White Fronted Goose sitting on the path. 
I turned the corner and there it was about ten feet away. Nice to see one up 
close instead of 200 yards away.
