[cayugabirds-l] Red-throated Loon, Stewart Park
A RED-THROATED LOON that Bill Evans and I found from the railroad tracks a mile north of South End is now visible from Stewart Park. We also saw a female LONG-TAILED DUCK in the same area. No other particular rarities on our walk from Stewart to Myers, although we did see a number of Eastern Bluebirds and both Horned and Pied-billed grebes and a couple Common Loons a little south of Myers.

And now also three Common Loons, a pair of Gadwall, and a female-type WHITE-WINGED SCOTER.
