Blue Lake (aka Adobe Creek Res) hosted a nice assortment of birds today including:
Bonaparte's Gull (1)
Dunlin (3)
Sanderling (1)
Least Sandpiper (2)
Greater Yellowlegs (1)
Black-bellied Plover (1)
Long-billed Dowitcher (8)
Lesser Black-backed Gull (1a)
Sandhill Crane (few thousand flyovers)
Snow/Ross's Goose (at least 100) FOS
Lapland Longspur (heard at least 5)
Best viewing was along the southeast shore (Bent) and the west shore spit (Kiowa) which in the sw corner the northwest quadrant of the water. The road situation is difficult to describe but we came into the area off the Haswell Road (Bent CR14) by going w on Kiowa Rd A/Bent Rd WW and then worked our way west and north to view the spit.
Total of 38 species
