Hi Everyone,

Just got a phone call from one the OBBA2 point counters.  David Rankin just
got done watching a territorial BELL'S VIREO in eastern Allen County just
west of Ada.

The bird was singing consistently for about 45 minutes from a willow tree in
the riparian corridor along Hog Creek off of Pevee Road.  Take Hwy 81 west
out of Ada, cross the Allen/Hardin county line and turn north on Pevee
Road.  There are two riparian areas from Hog Creek that cross Pevee Rd but
it appears that the vireo was hanging out in the area closer to Hwy 81.
Paste the coordinates below into Google Maps for a good bird's eye view of
the area.

40.78477 -83.90860

Good birding!
