April 8  9am-1pm- Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Flicker, Eastern Phoebe(10), Purple Martin, Barn Swallows(2), many Tree Swallows, House Finch, House Wren(definitely not Carolina or Winter, but not 100% on HW), Golden-crowned Kinglets(hundreds), many Song Sparrows and Juncos, just a couple of Am Tree Sparrows, Cowbirds(4), Killdeer(2), Red-tailed Hawk, Hermit Thursh, Harlequin Duck, Hooded Mergansers(4), Horned Grebe(6), Pied-billed Grebe(2), Red-necked Grebe(over 300)

April 9  1pm-330pm- Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker(12- increasing), Eastern Phoebe(10), Barn and Tree Swallows, Golden-crowned Kinglet(hundreds), Ruby-crowned Kinglet(1), Cowbirds(3), Yellow-rumped Warbler(6), Hermit Thrush, Horned Grebe(6), Brown Creeper(3). Red-necked Grebes(over 100, but dispersed as far as the eye could see on flat water), Black-crowned Night Heron(2)

Notes: Western Grebe absent both days. No one I talked to had seen it. Harlequin likely out beyond my 8x42 range Tuesday- flat water seemed to cause dispersing of most waterfowl.
