Rick Asamoto and I went birding along the Great Miami River in Dayton
and Englewood MP after work this afternoon.

We found one Stilt Sandpiper along the river. The great shorebird
habitat that was there (some remains) has been mostly destroyed by
removal of the gravel that was put down to build a temporary
construction road for replacement of the Stewart St bridge. We did see
55 adult Herring Gulls and three 1st year juveniles. This seems to be a
very large number for SW Ohio, especially at this time of year. There
was one Caspian Tern along the river also.

At Englewood MP (Montgomery County) we had nine species of shorebirds.

Semipalmated Plover
Killdeer
Spotted Sandpiper
Solitary Sandpiper
Lesser Yellowlegs
Semipalmated Sandpiper
Least Sandpiper
Pectoral Sandpiper
Stilt Sandpiper

We also saw one Yellow-throated Warbler and many Barn Swallows and
Purple Martins at Englewood.
