Spring Birding - Chequamegon Bay

Despite the weather, the birding has been good! Feeders are hosting large numbers of Dark-eyed Juncos, Fox Sparrows, and American Tree Sparrows, as well as some Evening Grosbeaks still. Flooded fields have dabbling ducks, shorebirds such as snipe and yellowlegs, and many gulls, including rare Lesser Black-backed and Iceland. Great numbers of loons, grebes, and diving ducks line the waters of Lake Superior. And Ryan Brady found only the 2nd Bayfield County record of Say’s Phoebe near Herbster on April 27. It’s that time of year… every day is different and you never know what you might find!.
