The OSU Ornithology class birded Scioto Audubon again this morning, and
turned up a few new birds that we did not see yesterday.  Among the
highlights (Numbers in parentheses):

Spotted Sandpiper (2) and Solitary Sandpiper (2) - Foraging on the mudflats
at both the tip and the base of the Whittier Peninsula.

Caspian Tern (2) - Fishing above the Greenlawn Dam.  At one point, one of
them harassed a Herring Gull sitting on the water.

Red-headed Woodpecker (1) - This bird made a reappearance today right by the
Grange Insurance Audubon Center.  We viewed it from just outside the center,
on the top of the hill overlooking the bike path.

Blue-winged Warbler (1) - Singing in the trees between the boat launch and
the Greenlawn dam.

In addition to these new highlights, we heard or saw greater numbers of
Warbling Vireos and House Wrens than yesterday.

Good birding,
