This morning Glenn Belyea, Brad Murphy, and I birded Pointe Mouillee SGA, Monroe Co. There are still many, many ducks around, including a drake Eurasian Wigeon in Cell 3. Cell 3 is one of the outermost cells along Lake Erie, adjacent to the NE corner of the Lead Unit.
Shorebirds were also interesting, with 51 Greater Yellowlegs, 1 Lesser Yellowlegs, 104 Pectoral Sandpipers, and 1 Dunlin.
Good birding,
Adam M. Byrne
