In my haste and excitement over the falcon, I made a few errors in my post
yesterday.  Dane was kind enough to point them out to me.

NOT a GREAT HERON, it was a GREAT EGRET
NOT a CANADIAN GOOSE, it was a CANADA GOOSE
NOT a PIE BILLED GREBE, it was a PIED BILLED GREBE

Just in case there was any confusion as to what I actually saw! ;)

Subject: [Ohio-birds] Sandy Ridge, Lorain County - Peregrine Falcon

I spent lunch at Sandy Ridge today.  Sandy Ridge is part of the Lorain
County Metro Parks and is located in North Ridgeville on Otten Road.



I was able to get spectacular views of a Peregrine Falcon.  It was
tormenting a gull, then spent 10 minutes attacking flocks of Green Winged
Teals.  Lots of splashing and drama.  Then it decided to focus its attention
on a Turkey Vulture.  It was quite a scene and very enjoyable to watch.



Complete List:



Peregrine Falcon

Green Winged Teal

Turkey Vulture

Yellow Rumped Warbler

Eastern Bluebird

Brown Creeper

Golden Crowned Kinglet

Winter Wren

Great Blue Heron

Great Heron

Mallard

Canadian Goose

Pie Billed Grebe

Tufted Titmouse

Black Capped Chickadee

White Breasted Nuthatch

Northern Shoveler

Red-Headed Woodpecker

Downy Woodpecker

Red-Bellied Woodpecker



Good Birding!



Spencer
