This morning (Mar. 12) from 8-9 am. I found 21 species of waterfowl at the west end of the lake including a flock of 700 Greater White-fronted Geese that were departing as I arrived. I saw no Snow or Ross's Geese. Total species included singles of Black Duck, Wood Duck, Green-winged Teal, Greater Scaup, Red-breasted Merganser, and Cackling Goose.

A prairie race Merlin was at 180th and Emery watching over a nervous flock of Lapland Longspurs.

I'm not putting my shovel away just yet.
