   The lake at Piney Run is now about 20% open.  Birds at Piney Run yesterday afternoon were:

Cackling Goose  3
Canada Goose  1,000
Black Duck  25
Mallard  50
Canvasback  16
Ring-necked Duck  4
Bufflehead  10
Hooded Merganser  1
Common Merganser  40
Pied-billed Grebe  2

Ring-billed Gulls  100
Herring Gull  1

   Spring migration - At home in the evening about 120 Robins were coming in to roost much to the delight of the local Cooper's Hawk which came barreling through the flock about 6PM.  I didn't see if it hit anything.
