This afternoon, an immature Iceland Gull was on the easternmost jetty to the west of the inlet at Point Lookout. Perhaps taking shelter from the fierce wind, two pairs of Harlequin Ducks were in the inlet, just north of the isolated house near the mouth of the inlet. Scans for grassland birds at Nickerson Beach and West End were not rewarded.
