Tuesday: Golden, Snowy and Harlequins
Carol and I drove around the Wastewater properties this morning hoping to find a Golden Eagle or a Snowy Owl. We didn't find the eagle (but it was there) and we did find the owl (but it wasn't there).
We met Jim Zervos who had seen the Golden Eagle west of Swanson between the east lagoon and White Road. We looked but could not re-find it. I did add Year Birds #53 American Black Duck and #54 Red-winged Blackbird (singing from a branch east of headquarters near the center dike) along with Horned Lark, Red-tailed and Roughleg Hawks and Bald Eagle.
Driving home we noticed this strange white lump on a house chimney: #55 Snowy Owl !
Meanwhile Charlie DeWitt and Ken Sapkowski reported two female Harlequin Ducks in the Grand Haven Channel this morning.
