Went to Tunkwa Lake today. The weather was great but a tad on the warm side. On the way up made a stop and walked the Logan Lake trails. They are nice trails but there are some areas where there is damage from the 2021 fire. A good amount of birds were present. Nice to see a Red-naped Sapsucker and hear Vesper Sparrows singing. Tunkwa was quite active. Like Logan Lake area, a lot of fire damage especially on the drive in. It was great to hear and get good looks of Yellow-headed Blackbirds Yellow-headed Blackbird at Tunkwa Lake Provincial Park Saw two Herring Gulls and one Bonaparte's Gull. The Herring Gulls breed here. Vesper Sparrows were quite common Vesper Sparrow at Tunkwa Lake Provincial Park Red-necked Grebes were very vocal. I haven't heard their call in a few years. Red-necked Grebe at Tunkwa Lake Provincial Park Excellent numbers of waterfowl were present on the lake and surrounding wetlands.
