Re: [SBB] Lake Cunningham



Hi All!
To add to Summer Brasuel's report:
    This afternoon at Cunningham, the flock of  BONAPARTE'S GULLS had 
increased to about a dozen.  There were also too many  FORSTER'S TERNS to count.  The 
collection of birds at the pond north of the  lake included several CANADA 
GEESE with 6 goslings, one GREATER YELLOWLEGS, one  breeding-plumaged DUNLIN, 
one DOWITCHER sp, two KILLDEER, ten WESTERN  SANDPIPERS, two female BUFFLEHEAD, 
one MALLARD, one neon-billed RUDDY DUCK male,  and one male CINNAMON TEAL.  (A 
female Ruddy Duck was tucked into the  reeds--nesting?--on the north edge of 
the lake.)  A large flock of  flapping CLIFF SWALLOWS was collecting mud on 
the west edge of the pond,  and a flock of 40 CEDAR WAXWINGS flew out over the 
pond from the trees  along the creek.  Oh, and there was a herd of AMERICAN 
COOTS that  almost ran me down as they were being warned off by Canada Geese.  
There  was one WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW nearby; I could not find one Yellow-rumped 
Warbler  today.
