Richard Stevens:
Temperatures were around 47 degrees today. Winds were 8 mph with gusts to 16 mph. High waves on Aurora Reservoir made picking out birds difficult.
We did find the two White-winged Scoters quite far off from Pavilion #4 at the Aurora Reservoir swim beach. The Long-tailed Ducks were never relocated. Hundreds of gulls on the swim beach ice shelf were mostly Ring-billed Gulls. We did pick out one adult Lesser Black-backed Gull. We scoped the gulls for a long time hoping to find a Mew Gull or the previously observed Iceland Gulls; without success.
