Wondering how much flooding is/was in the Flyway Cam area? Seems to be numerous sandbars visible now and groups of birds lazing around. See 3 photos from Monday, June 17.
The gnats/flies are still bothering the eagles on the flyway. Almost every adult BE on cam in last hour was shaking head and/or scratching. Today was the first time I've seen a boat on the Flyway cam - it seemed kind of incongruous on the peaceful wildlife habitat.

The Black River--another popular area for fishing and boating--also flows in to the Lake.
