There was a decent movement of birds today with dabblers and herring gulls
making up the majority.  Of note were 3 white-fronted geese and a glaucous
gull.



The last month or so has been very slow.  Even days when the lake was open
there were few birds moving.  Yesterday, there were a lot of mergansers and
gulls out far due to the ice so I didn't try to do a count
