Highlights from Calamus Swamp - American Bittern flying out of swamp, Sora
heard, several Hermit Thrushes, 5 Rusty Blackbirds, Ruby-crowned Kinglet.

From Deer Creek State Park and Wildlife Area -

Probable Franklin's Gulls - 2 resting in lake together near the dam.  White
eye arcs very evident.  Size near to or slightly larger than Bonaparte's
Gulls which were farther off, so somewhat hard to compare.  Bills seemed
daintier than Laughing Gull.  Hard to see the wing pattern as they did not
fly.  If anyone else sees them, please confirm.  My impression was
Franklin's Gulls over Laughing.  Scope needed.

Green Heron - one vocalizing at the Dick Road wetland.

American Pipits - 5 at the beach.
