I stopped at Bradstreet Landing last night at about 5:00. 8 Surf Scoters and 1 White-winged Scoter were spotted to the west of the pier. I returned this morning hoping to get better looks with the morning light, but a boat with decoys around it was there instead. I did manage to see 4-5 Common Loons from the landing and from the overlook at Rocky River Park. Other ducks included about 75 Red-breasted Mergs. A fair number of Bonaparte gulls were around as well. On the return home, I saw a Red-shouldered Hawk at Clague Park in Westlake. See you on the trails, Chris Pierce N.
