Drove around for a few hours this afternoon. At the cornfield just northwest of
Midway there was a nice assortment of dabblers as well as many Killdeer and
Snipe, a Pectoral Sandpiper, and two Pipits. Then made my way into Trempealeau
County where another flooded field provided Pintail and 20 Sandhills. Perot SP
was the best for waterfowl with a thousand Tundra Swans, many species of puddle
duck, some diving ducks, two Greater Yellowlegs, and a lone Greater
White-fronted Goose amongst the swans. Downtown Trempealeau had a Glaucous Gull
harassing some Herring Gulls. Trempealeau Lakes SWA offered a couple Fox
Sparrows, Rusty Blackbirds, Pied-billed Grebe, Osprey, and many hundreds of
Canvasback with all the standard diving ducks mixed in. Finally, back in La
Crosse, an immature Thayer's Gull was present at the Black River Beach. Total
of 55 species for the afternoon.
