It was very foggy and I could barely make out a large eagle-like silhouette on one of the bird's favored oak trees. By the time I walked partway over there, however, the bird had disappeared. Fortunately, by walking back towards the dam I managed to refind and get decent looks at the adult BALD EAGLE in a tall tree across the reservoir. Near the back dam were a CLARK'S and 5 WESTERN GREBES (where were these birds on count day!?). Fog-shrouded flyovers included 5 PINE SISKINS and 3 PURPLE FINCHES. Along the entrance road at the east end of the reservoir were 34 WILD TURKEYS (including 2 strutting toms) and at least 11 male TRICOLORED BLACKBIRDS. A quick check of the Coyote Creek Golf Course parking lot turned up only 2 BREWER'S BLACKBIRDS, but the two pairs of HOODED MERGANSERS were again on the pond here. Driving back north on highway 101, I saw one OSPREY perched at Parkway Lakes and another circling over Cottonwood Lake a few minutes later.
