Today, Ann Cramer, my dad and I birded at Dillon Lake.  We started out with
a grand view of 4 eagles, 3 immature and 1 adult at the dam.

> Sportmans Area and Nashport. There is massive flooding at the north end of
> the reservoir and up along the Dillon Sportsman area. There were literally
> hundreds of ducks in these flooded areas including Hooded Mergansers and
> two
> immature Bald Eagles (probably the same two that we saw further south at
> the
> Dam earlier in the day). We could not identify many of the ducks because
