It was a productive day in Section 1 of the Wilson-Lake Plains CBC in Niagara County, which includes Wilson-Tuscarora State Park, and 3 hours of lakewatching on Lake Ontario (thanks to Willie D'Anna and Dean DiTommaso for lakewatching with me). A total of 49 species was observed (3211 individuals). Most notable for this area was a single drake Northern Pintail and a Glaucous Gull. A beautiful day to be out!
