Trying for the Wilson's Phalarope for my wife, we of course dipped on that one. But in the place of it was 13 Black Bellied Plovers! They were in Pond 27 along the back and middle of the pond. Awesome easy views. Also the big reservoir had a Common Loon, 3 Red-breasted Mergansers, and 3 Double-creasted Cormorants in it. List follows. Happy birding and God bless!
