I had an adult LITTLE GULL fly by this evening at my house in North Perry,
Lake County. The lake finally opened up out here today. It is still over
50% ice-covered, but its a start. Now if we can get rid of the snow here.
We still have a little bit left. There has been continuous snow cover here
since February 10. This morning I didn't have much time to watch, but I did
get my first eastern phoebe along with tree swallows, flickers, meadowlarks,
and numerous blackbirds and crows. When I left there were a few vultures
flying by along with a couple kestrels, red-shouldered hawks, and red-tailed
hawks.
I also stopped briefly at Lorain Harbor. I didn't have time to really
search hard or make any counts, but in the time I was there I found a single
SURF SCOTER. There were a lot of red-breasted mergansers and a decent
number of Bonaparte's gulls flying around the harbor. Nothing else of note.
