There was a decent movement of birds today along the lake. Red-breasted
mergansers dominated the waterfowl and ring-bill gulls were the most
numerous gull. Birds of note included two surf scoters and an Iceland gull.
New for the spring were double-crested cormorants and Bonaparte's gulls.
Songbirds at the feeders included 20+ siskins, a single redpoll, a few fox
sparrows, and two towhees.
