This morning's highlights at Conneaut for Emil Bacik & I, and the others who gathered there later: Little Gull first-yr Franklin's Gull first-yr Red Phalarope ad The Little Gull departed early, but the others remained when we departed just before noon. There were ~400 Bonaparte's gathered here in the early AM, with birds dispersing slowly throughout the morning (a group of 100 or so even headed inland up Conneaut Creek). Other birds in the area included Black-crowned Night-Heron (3), Semipalmated Plover (3), Horned Lark (4), and Lapland Longspur (1).
