Guilford Lake and the surrounding area of northern Columbiana County was a mecca for birding this morning. From 11AM to 12:30PM we birded the scenic and easily accessible area and adjacent side roads. Of the 44 species recorded, it was definitely the day of the Horned Grebe, with over 130 seen, with some in rafts of 20 or more! Also of note, today is the only time we remember Herring Gulls outnumbering Ring-billed Gulls at this location. The following is a list of our highlights:
Mute Swan 7
Ring-necked Duck 70+
Lesser Scaup 30+
Bufflehead 40+
Common Goldeneye 1 pair
Hooded Merganser 2 pair
Common Merganser 3 males
Red-breasted Merganser 80+
