Man, I am having no luck at the Fill seeing all the cool things everyone
else sees: no yellow-headed blackbird, no pipits -- no scoter, for that
matter, but we've all seen zillions of those (though never in freshwater,
now that I think about it).

I'd like to arrange to walk around there with some of you more-experienced
Fillers. I can go any time between dropping kids off and picking kids up,
say, about 10 AM to 3 PM. Anyone interested in helping a down on his luck
birder? Drop me a line.

(And FYI, that big raft of mergansers was still there, but only about 25
birds, Monday around noon.)
