Things picked up again toady, at least early in the morning.  Gull numbers
were about the same as yesterday, but duck numbers were up quite a bit.
Common goldeneye and bufflehead numbers were up a bit.  Birds of note were 7
white-winged scoters and an 3rd winter Kumlien's gull.

The feeders were about the same today.  The crossbill did not show up, nor
did more than a couple house finches.  There was a siskin most of the
morning and a single common redpoll that showed up first thing in the
morning and reappeared at the end of the day.
