Much of Hillsdale Lake was frozen yesterday during our Burroughs Field Trip to Miami County. As such, we primarily scoped the bit of open water just north of the marina. A nice variety of waterfowl was present with a female type Black Scoter present among the many ducks and geese.
The group decided to check out La Cygnes Lake in Linn County, and once again we found a nice variety of waterfowl. Many of the gulls and loons were extremely long distance viewing from this location, but the kinglets were curious and welcomed visitors along the walk.
