I arrived at East Shore Drive before 5:00 P.M.. Gary Kohlenberg and Drew ? were there. I saw the MANY reported Brant near the Weather Station in the middle of the lake. Gary said the BLACK SCOTERS moved pretty far north, too far north to id them. We went to Myers Park, and from the point, we eventually saw 12 Black Scoters heading south. The 3 reported DUNLIN were still around and very close to us, so we had excellent views of them. Of note, there were many flocks of CORMORANTS heading south. Unfortunately, I neglected to count them. (Guess I need to do much better for E-bird.) We did see many more of them at East Shore and at Portland Point. Not one Greater Cormorant among them so far. Best, Ann Mitchell
