Probably to late for Chip, but I saw no Rusty Blackbirds yesterday morning. I did find the previos reported Barrow's Goldeneye on the small pond east of West Lake and a possible Greater Scaup among the Lesser Scaup on Prospect Lake. (Bad weather and optics didn't allow me to positively id the bird.) Two large rafts on Northern Shovelers were on tabor Lake. Almost all lakes held Common Goldeneye and West Lake had a raft of Redheads. Clear Creek had a pair of Wood Ducks by the car park off of Youngfield. (pointed out to me by a pair of British birders. Also on the creek were Am. Wigeon, Mallards, and Green-winged Teal. An American Dipper was signing under I-70. song Sparrows were also singing.
