Interesting afternoon on the Tour Route. Not anything worth excitement over but some nice numbers. I had a total of 138 song sparrows along the road with one Savannah and three Lincoln's mixed in. There were few gcsp. I had 236 sandhill cranes fly overhead coming from Bachelor Island to the Roth Unit. I did have an interesting Tundra Swan that had a extensive yellow patch on bill, sort of like a Bewick's but not quite enough.

Another interesting note is the Ross' goose is still around and was spotted early this week in the Roth Unit, an area cl;osed to the public, and it could show up anywhere at any time so keep your eyes peeled for it!
