It was raining lightly as four of us gathered to look for birds. The water level was high, which prevented us from spotting any shorebirds that normally lurk on the mudflats at the water’s edge. We did enjoy 200-300 Chimney Swifts swarming above us. There were around 20 Double-crested Cormorants, a couple of Common Mergansers, Great Blue Herons, and Canada Geese. We got eyes on two Rough-winged Swallows and an immature Bald Eagle too.
