Black-throated Diver at Arlington Reservoir 

First trip out for weeks saw me heading out to nearby Arlington Reservoir this afternoon.  I managed to dodge the rain and enjoy over 90 minutes on this lovely site.

• Target bird was a black-throated diver that was reported on RBA early this afternoon.  I couldn't find it at the northern end as reported but I did pick it up later on from the dam end.

• Other than a small flock of winter thrushes there were no other birds of special interest.

Nice to be out birding again!
