I was at Sims Park in Euclid today from about 11:30 to 1pm. I ran into Dave Ford while I was there. John Pogacnik stopped by for a short time and gave some helpful tips. The clouds got darker and then rain moved in and the lighting deteriorated. Here is a rough estimate of what was seen: Common Goldeneye 170 Lesser Scaup 25+ Total Scoters approx 38(one group of 25 plus other smaller groups) Black Scoters 3 or 4 Surf Scoter 17-19 White-winged Scoter 12-15 Bufflehead few, Red-breasted Mergansers - over 500 Horned Grebe 1 Bonapartes Gulls - few Nancy Anderson Richmond Hts, OH __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
