The lake was kind of slow today.  There had been a lot more mergansers
around.  Today they just weren't moving around.  Three lesser and 1 greater
yellowlegs were nice flybys.

The feeders were interesting this weekend.  On Friday I had a PINE WARBLER
and the my first rose-breasted grosbeak as well as over 200 white-throated
sparrows.  On Saturday there were few white-throated sparrows and the pine
warbler didn't show up.  Today there was a single common redpoll that stayed
about two minutes.  there were also several hundred American goldfinches and
a couple pine siskins.  Other new arrivals were ruby-throated hummingbird
and orchard and Baltimore oriole.  Also of note were a flock of 26 chipping
sparrows.  There were about 80+ white-throated sparrows around today also.
