Migrants were in evidence today with many Yellow-rumped Warblers, and flyover Eastern Meadowlark, Blue Jay, Northern Flicker, and Common Loon. A perched Yellow-billed Cuckoo was spotted close to the west path. Offshore, streams of Double-crested Cormorants were flying south along with a few flocks of Black Scoter. A nice surprise was a small flotilla of Horned Grebe. A single Eurasian Wigeon was seen on the plover pond, perhaps, one of those who have been present for some time on Bunker Pond at the state park. Several immature Bald Eagle put on a show including landing on the beach for scope views. Leaders: Pete Dunne, Steve Weis, Janet Crawford, Catherine Busch, Mary Watkins, Marc & Lynne Breslow, Nancy Watson, and Carrie Bell.
