21. American Black Duck
22. Great Blue Heron
23. Common Merganser
24. Belted Kingfisher
25. Common Goldeneye

Didn't look for new birds weekend; instead spent time photographing a pair of Red-shouldered Hawks that started nesting near our house. (Photos on my blog.)

Miserably wet day here yesterday but heard someone had seen some interesting birds at a local park, so I rushed over there. I added:
126. Wilson's Snipe
127. American Golden Plover
128. Least Sandpiper.

Jeff, I can expect the birds in your list below to arrive here in Missouri next month (except for the BTGR).

I am still a little surprised that I have not seen the Blue-winged Teal yet this year here in northwest Missouri. I usually see one by now!
