I just read from a MOU post that there were apparently 2 Western Grebes and 1 
Parasitic Jaeger seen at WI Point on Friday (yesterday.)

I birdwatched at Wisconsin Point this morning from about 7am to 9am. One 
highlight of the morning was counting a flock of 66 BONAPARTE'S GULLS. 
Another less-common highlight was a lone WESTERN GREBE observed on the 
lake-side from lot 1. In addition to yesterday's lone drake Bufflehead, I 
had four BUFFLEHEAD this morning. Photos will likely be posted tomorrow. 
Below is the list summarizing the morning's sightings 
Gadwall 3 
Mallard 2 
Green-winged Teal 6 
Greater/Lesser Scaup 20 
Bufflehead 4 
Western Grebe 1 
Bald Eagle 2 
Semipalmated Plover 1 
Sanderling 2 
Bonaparte's Gull 66 
Ring-billed Gull 400 
Herring Gull 5 
Belted Kingfisher 1 
Northern Flicker (Yellow-shafted) 1 
Brown Creeper 1 
American Robin 1 
Lapland Longspur 2
