I birdwatched at Wisconsin Point this morning from about 7am to 9am. One highlight of the morning was counting a flock of 66 BONAPARTE'S GULLS. Another less-common highlight was a lone WESTERN GREBE observed on the lake-side from lot 1. In addition to yesterday's lone drake Bufflehead, I had four BUFFLEHEAD this morning. Photos will likely be posted tomorrow. Below is the list summarizing the morning's sightings
