Today River Bluffs Audubon had a field trip to Binder Lake, Cole County, which gave us several species of ducks despite pretty small numbers and a flyover of forty or so probable trumpeter swans. At one point eighty or so canada geese on the bank started honking very loudly in unison. The noise was quite incredible and we wondered what was up when we saw two geese fighting it out and the eighty seemingly standing there watching. One of the fighters gave it up and ran away after a good bit of thrashing around. Also an eagle appeared to be chasing a gull.
