Wayne Shawl took us down the "Y Road", which is downriver from Cooke Dam in his four wheel drive Suburban.  Four wheel drive is a must with the snow depth.   This is where we observed the Trumpeter & Tundra Swans and Golden-crowned Kinglets.  Thanks Wayne!!

Birders should really venture up to the AuSable River on River Rd from M-65 to Oscoda in the winter.  It is a winter wonderland up there, particularly Iargo Springs and the "Y Road"!
