It was still foggy, but around 4:00 p.m. the fog lefted. We were around the airport and added Am. Kestrel and Wild Turkey to our day list.

At the 15th Avenue bridge, the gravel bar north of the bridge was under water at 4:30 p.m., but there were over 75 Common Mergansers there and a small (14) flock of Common Goldeneyes.
