The weather pattern continues to be mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers as this weakening low pressure system spins over us.
Waterfowl: It was slow overall with a very slow morning and a little bit better of an afternoon. Scaup were the most numerous migrating waterbirds with about 100 seen. Red-necked Grebes moved by in OK numbers with 51 seen and Loons put in a modest showing with 14 Commons and 13 Red-throateds. It was a poor scoter day but all three species were seen-- numbers were 9 White-wingeds, a Surf, and a Black.
Shorebirds: None.
Other: A Peregrine Falcon gave a nice flyby and a few groups of Lapland Longspurs came in off the lake.
