I led a walk at the Wilkie unit this afternoon and while we did not find 
anything rare, there were lots of birds there.  We hiked from the main parking 
lot over to Blue lake and the treatment plant.  Here are a few of the species 
of birds we observed.

Trumpeter Swan - 32 birds were observed on Blue Lake
Common Goldeneye - 100+ at the Blue Lake Water Treatment plant
Northern Harrier - 1 adult male, was observed along the South West side of 
Fisher Lake
Northern Shrike - 1 adult bird was observed on the SE side of Blue Lake.  
American Robin - 100s of American Robins were observed North of the main 
parking area.
