Greetings---I spent some time atlasing in Ashtabula Co. yesterday 7/15. Started out at Conneaut Harbor at dawn hoping for shorebirds. There were only a few in the morning, including lesser yellowlegs, semipalmated sandpiper, and least sandpipers. A juv. black-crowned night-heron was a good find (where was it hatched I wonder?). Bald eagles are probably a daily presence there now. I was surprised that I didn't notice any migrant yellow warblers. Swallows were the most conspicuous migrants throughout Ashtabula Co. In the SW part of Conneaut Twp. I found a few grasshopper sparrows. Down at Dorset WA I was pleasantly surprised to see an osprey--do they nest here, or was this an early migrant? Later, Craig
