Observation details
The number reported is probably conservative. There were many CLSW perching high on utility lines mixing with some NRSW's. Groups were constantly exchanging on the wire's. Upon reviewing my images which were at a great distance I increased my original count of 35 to 45 which is still conservative. Viewing the birds in flight over the ponds the NWSW's out numbered the Cliffs 3 to 1. Only a few VGSW's were seen by me but they were there.
