Lisa Shannon and I saw the Cave Swallows down low and close, many times, 
before about 8:30 a.m., around the Rt. 121 bridge over the reservoir.

We then went to the Visitor Center area, and saw neither the Red-throated 
Loon, the Eared Grebe, nor the Long-tailed Duck, though Matt Orsie might 
have seen the grebe in the far distance, swimming behind a point.  We did 
see the two funky geese.  Their necks are so long and thin that I wonder if 
they have Swan Goose ancestry.
