Comments:
Only the 2010 survey had a number for adults. The 2008, 2009, and 2018 observations were of chicks observed but no numbers. Assuming the Platte Lake in Brule County is supposed to be Aurora County because I did not find one in Brule County on Google Maps. Observers were Nancy Drilling and SDBBA 2015.
