The most nests were at Running Slough. Other birds sighted were Double-crested Cormorants and Great Egrets, although there was a handwritten note "Trip a bit early for Egrets to be incubating." The survey was flown by nongame biologist David Newhouse with two wildlife biologists, Bill Aspelmeier and Bill Ohde, and a pilot, Darryl Miller.

Field notes were contributed by Fred Lesher, spring and summer 1984. He reported that Margaret M. Anderson had told him that the Iowa Bald Eagle nest at "Dead Haines" (in Allamakee County) had fledged two young. Fourteen Bald Eagles were seen near Lansing and New Albin in the spring, along with nine other bird species, but status of their nests was uncertain. Among eight species observed in the summer, Winter Wrens were heard singing and Orchard Orioles were seen at Wantea Point. This item was used as supporting documentation for the Iowa Ornithologists’ Union Quarterly field report of summer 1984.
