I decided to hit water and field areas around Dryden this morning. May have missed early morning fallout as 18 DC CORMORANTS were circling away as I arrived. There were 15 HORNED GREBES and 9 PIED BILLEDS were good counts for there. Also 1 COM LOON and 20 or so BUFFLEHEADS.
then I had VESPER SPARROWS on W Lake Rd (singing) and Cornell Lane - w lots of SAVANNAH'S. the highlight was the small pond and wetland south of Cornell Lane which was covered w ducks- 80 GREEN-WINGED TEAL, 7 WOOD DUCKS, pair each of AM WIGEON and PINTAIL. Also 7 BONAPARTES GULLS with 50+ RING BILL adults. Still a carpet of JUNCOS in my neighborhood.
