Sorry for the late post on this one but on Friday, 4/20, along with the
more common complement of birds, I observed a swamp sparrow at Rutherford
wetland.  Rutherford wetland is located in Hocking Co. about 1 mile west of
Carbon Hill (State Route 278).  Delorme 69 D 7 (right in the very right
hand bottom corner of page - look for Chesapeake and Ohio railroad label.
The wetland is exactly where the word Ohio is).

Yesterday, 4/23,  while out and about on the Marietta Unit of the Wayne.
Two female hooded mergansers where swimming in the Little Muskingum River,
Monroe County (Stonehouse Road), near  Holmes wetland (a manmade
constructed wetland).  Delorme 72 C 2.5   also

Two great egrets were in a wetland (that seems to have appeared in the last
year or so) along the north side of State Route 7 (across from Eragon
Trucking)  in Washington County, approx. 3/4 to 1 mile east of the Willow
Island Dam.
