Emil Bacik and I traced a not-so-rigid "triangle" through Stark/Mahoning/Holmes Cos. today. Of interest:
We covered Berlin Lake, Deer Creek and Walborn Reservoirs with a thoroughness. No Brown Pelican, but a basic-plumaged Common Loon was visible from the US-224 crossing. Could this be the Loch Ness pelican? Two Forster's Terns here, also.
We bumped into Sue Snyder and her mother at Clay's Park Resort. I would strongly urge a visit - truly awesome! And the park personnel are ridiculously birder-friendly. Nothing like watching 24 white pelicans lift off from here (leaving four on the ground) and turn lazy circles overhead, taking a good 5+ minutes to reach a decent altitude and drift out of sight. And when you snap back to reality, you're standing next to couple-acre fishing pond, surrounded by RV's & camping families & golf carts, smack dab in the middle of eastern Ohio!
