Willard Bay was an interesting mix today. In the
campgrounds on the north end were lots of orioles, yellow warblers, grosbeaks
and kingbirds (even a couple of easterns), but not the expected variety of
warblers and flycatchers. In the pond north of the campground were six
Black Terns mixed in with a number of Forster's. They were circling
the area just west of the pond. At the Harold Crane WMA, there were six
Snowy Plovers. After you cross the river and start going west (with the
dike on your right side), look for the plovers on your left. They were
quite hard to see as they blended right in with the sand and short brown
vegetation.
