[cobirds] Where the migrants weren't

Greetings All,

I had a couple hours to bird today, and saw nary a migrant.

The area around Apple Valley was dead, except for a goodly number of Lesser Goldfinches (55)

Ish and Terry Reservoirs had a few ducks and Western/Clark's Grebes but no shorebirds, scoters, gulls, etc

Union Reservoir has lost all of its shorebirds (apparently to Teller Lakes) and no Sabine's type gulls or jaegeroids.

Frederick Rec Area, which had held a reasonable number of passerine migrants, no longer does, though it did have 200+ Eurasian Collared-Doves. Maybe they ate the warblers.

Good Birding
