Andy,
I used to live close to Gunners Lake and would often
walk the path around it, bins in tote. Unfortunately,
it has never been a location that produced much other
than meeting lots of people who want to know what
you're looking at and a bazillion pets. If you live
close and have a *very* limited time schedule, it's
always been my philosophy that it's better to be
birding than not. You'll be lucky to turn much up
here, though. A few migrants do pass through and the
small lake gets ducks of a small variety in winter.
Your time while in Germantown would be far better
spent at Black Hills Regional Park (in my opinion).
After having said all this, if you find a great bird
there, let me know! <grin>
