Hello,

I did go back to the Feedlot near the Para Pond and did find a sizable blackbird flock. I did id 18 tricolors in the flock(s). There were many wana-be-tricolored Redwings in the group.

I went to Marsh Unit 1 on Columbia NWR and from the overlook parkinglot (the area is closed to access) I saw the white sandhill crane that had been reported earlier, it is a striking bird. There was also 148 white-fronted geese as well as 830 cranes.
