Northern Goshawk: Paula Lozano observed one circling above Oakwood Park,
Lorain, on the 9th. David English reported an immature bird flying over
Solon, Cuyahoga County, on the 10th.

Yellow Rail: Gabe Leidy found one at the not-open-to-the-general-public Dike

American Avocet: On the 7th Doug Vogus reported that one was found during the
monthly census of not-open-to-the-general-public areas of the Ottawa National

Red Knot:  Like the above, but three in number.

Buff-breasted Sandpiper: Troy Shively found one at Old Field Beach at Indian
Lake SP in Logan County on the 5th.

Franklin's Gull: Troy Shively found one at Old Field Beach at Indian Lake SP
in Logan County on the 5th. Presumably this is the same bird that was first
reported in mid-September. Also on the 5th, Larry Gara found one on the beach
at Caesar's Creek SP,  Warren County. A day later the beach at Deer Creek SP,
Pickaway County, yielded one to Aaron Boone.  Doug Overacker confirmed that
the eight reported last week at Buck Creek State Park, Clark County, were
still present on the 6th.

Clay-colored Sparrow: Ben Fambrough saw one at Dike 14, Cuyahoga county, on
the 5th. Gabe Leidy saw one outside the fence there on the 11th. Also on the
11th, John Pogacnik had one visiting his yard in North Perry, Lake County,
while Ray Hannikman found one at Headlands Beach SP in Lake County. Ben
Fambrough relocated his bird outside the northwest corner of the fence at
Dike 14 on the 12th.

Leconte's Sparrow: One was spotted by Ray Hannikman on the Wake Robin Trail
at Headlands Beach SP, Lake County, on the 11th.

Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow: Bill Whan reported that the Columbus Avid
Birders found a few at the Lorain impoundment, Lorain County, on the 6th.
Ethan Kistler found one on private land near Newton Falls,  Trumbull County,
on the 7th.

Red Crossbill: Greg Links reported that a fly-by just south of the High Level
Bridge over the Maumee River, Lucas County, was the highlight of the Toledo
Naturalists' Association outing on the 7th.
