We had an appointment in Belle yesterday and stopped by briefly at the Belle Fourche Reservoir which is completely open and all of the ice gone. The west inlet area had several thousand ducks and geese but we didn't try to identify as we were in a hurry. Didn't see any Cranes or Pelicans.
The only new arrival at our feeders 1.5 miles south of Whitewood was a Sharp-shinned Hawk on 3/19. A photo is attached. We finally had Mount Bluebirds during our walk today on Crook City Road. Numbers of some species at our feeders appears to be increasing and we had 35+ Juncos on 3/18.
