One of the slowest days since August, but at least the southerly winds made the weather at McGulpin pretty nice. The main highlight for me was a lone Black Scoter flying west, though I can’t complain about seeing hundreds of Long-tailed Ducks. I’m glad to still have Red-throated Loons passing through as well.
