Adam Kent and I walked the north shore of Newnans Lake via Gum Root Swamp
this morning (8:20-11:45) and found about 55 species. Best birds of the day
were two probable Rusty Blackbirds foraging along the muddy lakeshore, and a
first-winter Franklin's Gull (third county record). Other good sightings:

American White Pelican  ~275
Great Blue Heron  64
Great Egret  38
Northern Shoveler  ~20
Green-winged Teal  ~150
Hooded Merganser  25
Black-bellied Plover  1
American Avocet  1
Dunlin  ~50
Long-billed Dowitcher  19
Caspian Tern  1

Everyone should have a hobby;
I however prefer an obsession.
