This morning, in the sunshine, Dana & I explored the southwest loop at Cent. away from the lake. Specifically to try to locate the Black-billed Cuckoo, we did not. If anyone has seen this bird in the last day or so please post. Also tried to relocate the Common Moorhen.  I am pretty sure we watched fly off from a distance,to a denser part of this isle because of a fisherman trolling in the little cove the bird likes. Again if anyone knows if it is still there please post. Thank you.

What we did see is below.

Good Birding
