Birding at Silver Lake: Featuring a Great Blue Heron (12/16/23)

We hoped to see some canvasbacks on Silver Lake but, although some were reported recently, we didn’t see any. Most of the birds swimming on the lake were Canada geese, double-crested cormorants, ring-billed gulls, red-breasted mergansers, and mallards. Other birds identified were bald eagle (imm.), red-bellied woodpecker, yellow-rumped warbler, great blue heron, and common grackle.
