On the "you never know" theory, I spent another hour at Sandling Beach
around 5PM today. To no avail. At least there were a few more other
birds to look at than I saw yesterday. A cohesive flock of not 6, not
8, but 29 Common Loons was not far offshore. In the gray light I could
just make out far out in the lake one each of Common Tern, Laughing
Gull, and Bonaparte's Gull among several Ring-billed Gulls. A lone
Great Blue Heron and later a lone Greater Yellowlegs had the beach to
themselves.
