hi:

saw several western grebes on sikes lake this mid afternoon. did not
appear to be any clark's.

also note the big snag tree at the far northwest end of the lake seems to
have been a victim of the past few windy days (or the flower farmer's chain
saw. that was the tree the golden eagle hung out in off and on winter
before last. the snag tree population has diminished markedly in the new
century. i also note a trip to sikes no longer yields numerous views of
red tailed hawks nor the slightly more than occasional bald eagle.

the large gatherings of cackling geese are now evident in the field across
from the old nestle training center. did not have time to scope the flock
to see if there were greater white fronted geese in the mix or canadas
either.

regards,

t
