Thanks for the checklist with photos, Marge and Don.

I birded LLC with a checklist around 11:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. today. By
that time, the Canada Geese were there in force. I counted 85 but
could have missed some.
I haven't checked my photos yet, but there were at least six
Black-crowned Night Herons. It's good to know that you saw even more!
I looked for but did not find any flickers. The bench in that area was
occupied, so I birded elsewhere.
The American Kestrel was hunting in the eastern lagoon.
The Muscovy-like Duck has been at LLC for about a week.
I only observed five dowitchers also.
A Mute Swan has appeared (or reappeared) as of yesterday, I think.
Nothing else of note.

We took a brief walk around the lake this morning. There were only a few Canada Geese, the Long-billed Dowitchers were down to five, but there were 11 Black-crowned Night-herons were all around the lake. There was also a domestic duck vaguely resembling a Muscovy Duck.
When we got to the bench overlooking the northwest corner of the island, we were treated to a Northern Flicker feeding in a berry tree. It seemed to be a female yellow-shafted. The undertail and edges of the wings showed deep yellow, the nape had a red patch, albeit somewhat faint.
