Observation details
Counted birds in 1 min intervals: 135@ 12; 350@1220; 57@1240; 126@1310. Numbers were fluctuating as the stream passed, and there was a second stream farther offshore that was hard to see and count. Based on these 1 minute counts, I think 7500 is a conservative estimate. I did take photos and some video, which I will post later. Two leucistic birds: photographed below.
