Oberlin Reservoir gull numbers were WAAAAAY down from those reported over
the weekend.  All  my untrained eye could find were Herring (several stages)
and Ring-billed.  A small group (6) of Pintails was being 'herded' around by
a gull.  I also saw what appears to be a hybrid Canada Goose x Dark Phase
Snow Goose.  Feet, head and neck of a dark snow and the body of a Canada.
Your comments would be appreciated.

How do you count this bird?



Also, I saw the 'Mallard hybrid' yesterday (Tuesday) at the lake in
Castalia.  I took a picture of this bird last year.  How many different
species do you think are represented in this one individual?



I hope to go to Lakeview Cemetery tomorrow and look for the Merlins.
