I spent some time this morning trying to see if any migrating waterfowl 
are coming through.  I didn't see anything of note at Alum Creek except 6 
or so herring gulls mixed in a flock of ring-billed gulls.  I was also 
surprised to see a red-winged blackbird drinking from the reservoir just 
west of the dam.

At Oxbow Recreation Area in the Hoover Nature Preserve there was a small 
raft of ruddy ducks and a small flock of Bonaparte's gulls.  No sign of 
the tundra swans I saw Tuesday, though. 

At Hoover Dam there were six American Coots and a pied-billed grebe.  A 
juvenile red-shouldered hawk was being harrassed by crows at Red Bank 
Marina (Maxtown and Sunbury Rds.).

With the water level so low at Hoover, I wonder if the migrants decided it 
wasn't worth the stop.
