Time Started: 0738 Time Finished: 1400 It was partly cloudy and hot with some light wind on the survey today. 50 species were found. Not too many migrants were found today. Searched hard for storks today but no luck. Not much water left on the slough. We need rain bad. Still have a couple active Neotropic Cormorant nests and there are still a few Anhinga young that are close to fledging.
