There was a great movement of birds today with lots of ducks and gulls.
Missing were horned grebes, and I had only a single loon. The Bonaparte's
gulls here moved in two distinct waves. A group passed by around 8:00 and
another group went by around 9:30. There was an adult little gull with the
first group. Surprisingly the Bonaparte's were going east while all of the
other birds were heading west. I also had 3 long-tailed ducks and a surf
scoter.
