I went to Vernon Marsh SWA near Mukwonago (Waukesha Cty) this evening in
hopes of finding shorebird habitat, but I think I'm a week or so early.
Birding quality was high, however. A pair of TRUMPETER SWANS was present in
the second pool of the Figure-8 Dikes. No cygnets were around (perhaps they
didn't make it through the summer?), and neither bird was sitting on a nest
of any sort. Other interesting birds were a couple BLACK-CROWNED
NIGHT-HERONS, a BLACK TERN, COMMON GALLINULE, and a pair of LESSER
YELLOWLEGS.
The following link takes you too my eBird list which has a few photos
attached.
