Ruby-throated Hummingbird 1
Ring-billed Gull 1
Herring Gull 1
loon sp. 1 We had only brief, distant looks at this bird, mostly by telescope. It was
clearly a loon, and appeared to be an immature bird. But we disagreed on whether
the bill was that of a red-throated or common loon. Recent sightings of an immature
red-throated loon on Mystic Lakes made some of us wonder if this was the same bird.
Several members of our party looked for the bird after the walk and the next day, but
also never got a close look.
