Greetings All
Today the female Mottled Duck was seen from about 7:45-9 am from the upper boat launch at end of road C where hits e side of Neegronda Reservoir. Also there was a Least Bittern and a Ladder-backed Woodpecker. The reservoir also had a stunning (>100) Redhead, a couple Canvasback, a Hooded Merg and several Wood Duck

At the pond near the se corner of Neenoshe there was a very cooperative adult and near adult Neotropic Cormorant. Also 100 or so White-faced and maybe white-faced Ibis.

The woods along the nw side of Upper Queens had migrant Warbling Vireo, Yellow Warblers, WW Pewee, Willow Fly and — best of all— a male Lesser Nighthawk which flushed from ground in Tamarisk.

Few shorebirds today. Water level now too high at Lower Queens. Neenoshe had habitat, just not many shorebirds

Good Luck and Good Birding
