Subject:      Lake Horton & E.L. Huie 2/19/04

I went to the E.L. Huie ponds this AM followed by a trip to Lake Horton this
afternoon.

At Huie:

1 Eared Grebe
40+ Ruddy Ducks
20+ Northern Shovelers
30+ Greater & Lesser Scaups
2 Green-winged Teals
20+ Ringnecks
2 American Pipits
2 Belted Kingfishers

At Lake Horton:

The YB Loon was seen from the n. end of Antioch Rd.  I heard from other
birders that the YB Loon and the Common Loon had been seen together earlier
and were on the eastern arm of the lake.  However, when I saw the YB Loon it
was about 80 yards out in a straight line from Antioch and slowly moved to the
right, or western arm of the lake near the dam.  The Common Loon was in the
vicinity of the YB, but not as close as it had been yesterday or the day before.
When I left, the YB Loon was on the surface with its head turned backwards.
It had been diving and staying under water for long periods.  The Ross's Goose
was near the western side of the causeway very close to the shore and the
road.
