Songbirds were a bit slow due to the light drizzle, so I spent some time watching the lake. There were small numbers of Bonaparte's gulls and red-breasted mergansers feeding off-shore most of the time and there was a light movement of birds heading east. There were a fair number of loons feeding offshore and a RED-NECKED GREBE joined them briefly. A flyby GLAUCOUS GULL was late.
