I saw a Pacific Loon this morning on Long Lake along highway 291 right
behind the Willow Bay Resort (marker 20).



Later in the day, there was an immature Golden Eagle between Reardan and
Davenport



Finally, the late afternoon at Sprague Lake proved rewarding. On the Adams
end of the lake, there was one Snow Goose, 1 flock of about 5 Red breasted
Mergansers, and I (best I can tell) immature dark morph Parasitic Jaeger. I
got to see it very well as it flew back and forth right along the shoreline,
sitting from time to time, harassing Bonaparte Gulls, a large flock of
Western Grebes, and chasing up a Greater Yellowlegs from the shoreline. It
was fun.



Blessings,



Terry
