COBirders,
My
dad and I stopped by Big Johnson reservoir late this evening, just
after 7, and found a few nice birds. There was a RED-NECKED GREBE out
in the northern half of the reservoir and a PACIFIC LOON just west of
the grebe. There was also another LOON but it was only in view for a
brief moment before disappearing behind the dam. There was a single
RED-NECKED PHALAROPE fairly close to the island. There were about 15
BAIRD'S, 1 WESTERN and maybe 10 more peeps along the shoreline that we
could see. Some of the birds were just too distant to ID.
