Approximately 150 COMMON LOONS up & down, offshore, in Cayuga Lake off Lansing Station Rd in Lansing, many nearer west shore. Accompanied by several gulls trying to steal food.
Also 10 BLACK DUCKS, 5 MALLARDS & 1 HORNED GREBE that was close to my beach for a good look. At least 1 FOX SPARROW still in front yard under spruce tree along with 8 Juncos, 4 BLUE JAYS & 4 A. CROWS. One Crow had white areas on rear part of folded wings, rather as if its feathers had been scraped down to structures underneath the black parts.
