Things generally were quiet at the dam at Hoover Reservoir this afternoon.
A quick stop for waterfowl yielded lots of Mallards and one pair of
Northern Shovelers. A lone Pied-billed Grebe was floating near the dam
toward the Eastern shore.

Many hundreds of Ring-billed Gulls were hanging around the
now-under-construction docks; a quick scan revealed two Herring Gulls but
no other gull species.

I did not have much time to spend hunting for other waterfowl further up
the reservoir, but brief looks along the way did not turn up additional
species other than the usual Canada Goose – and not all that many of them.

The water level is very high. It will be interesting to see what the coming
cold weather brings.
