Hi folks,
The flock of 80+ BLACK SCOTERS (later joined by 3 adult male SURF SCOTERS)
flew a bit north as previously posted, however they were visible from near
the dentist office (Dr. Janice Hall Ormsby) a ways north on 34. Most if
not all of the original flock (75+ birds, ~20f/juv, ~55m - no surfs) was
visible from the spot out in the middle of the lake. (Thanks to Jay for
posting.)
Also, I figure I saw about 800 Brant today - 1 good sized flock flew over
my house this morning (unusually low), 3 big groups flew south from the
lake this afternoon, 1 flock that stayed on the lake up near the scoters,
and a small group (couple dozen) that flew down along the shore at Myers.
Also at Myers were 2 GREATER YELLOWLEGS, 20+ Common Loons, small group of
E. Bluebirds and a very vocal Carolina Wren mobbing a young Red-tail over
at salt point.
Good birding,
-Paul
