This afternoon at Liberty Lake with Debbie Terry I checked the upper end of the lake for shorebirds. The lake continues to recede and the shorebirds are now a mile or more south of the Route 140 bridge. The Beaver Run section of the lake may now be getting some of the birds and I may check that tomorrow.

Canada Goose  160
Mallard  1
Green-winged Teal  6
Great Blue Heron  2
Great Egret  2
