Today (Friday) there were 8 Sandhill Cranes at LaDue Res. - feeding along the west shoreline.  Looked like two family groups of 4 each. 

At Mosquito Creek Res. (north end) there were at least 10 Bald Eagles - more immatures than adults.  One Common Loon was just north of the causeway/Rt. 88.
Ducks were relatively thin here - with hundreds of Hooded Mergansers the primary species.
There were a few Horned Grebes and Pied-billed Grebes.

A light-morph Rough-legged Hawk was near the north end of Hayes Rd. in a field north of Peters Rd.  Eight Eastern Bluebirds were perched close together along roadside wires on Donley Rd. just to the east.
