None of us at Ft Smallwood had seen the Redpoll, nor any Junco flock, by 
9 this AM, when it bagan to rain.

I then stopped at Wild Lake in Columbia at ~ 10:30. There, at the dam 
end, near 28 Hooded Mergs, stood the grebe. At first it was spinning 
about continuously like a phalarope. Coincidentally, Leslie Starr 
arrived at the same time, with a new scope which even in the dim light 
afforded superb views  of such marks as the yellow basal half of the 
bill and a hint of red to the neck.
