I took my second shot at the Swans at Boyd. This time I found them. While there, I picked up another Cinnamon Teal and a flyover flock of 80 or so migrating Yellow-headed Blackbirds. There were a lot of Snow Geese flying around as well.
I would've stayed until the fog lifted and the sun shone a little brighter so I could get better photos, but the temperature was 5 degrees and I thought frost bite was a poor trade off, so I left. On the way home, the temperature measured in at a hefty 13 degrees as I was passing the exit for Jackson Lake SP, so the optimist in me decided to go there. It was a lot warmer, even hitting the 20s while I was there, but all I picked up was a few more accipiters chasing all the robins and waxwings. All the waxwings were cedars, but I can't complain about that.
