Pardon the delay in posting recently, I'm still unable to access my Yahoo account from the home computer.  Thank goodness for the public library!  Yesterday 10/15 I was at Conneaut harbor 7:30 AM until 2:00 PM.  Bird numbers were pretty low except for dunlins, but over the 6+ hour span a nice variety of species was recorded:  4 BRANT (stayed a few minutes), Am. wigeon, n. pintail, Am. black duck, n. shoveler, green-winged teal, WHITE-WINGED SCOTER (flyby), hooded merganser, pied-billed grebe, 75 double-crested cormorants, 2 black-crowned night-herons, Am. coot, 2 black-bellied plovers, killdeer, ruddy turnstone, 6 sanderlings, 71 dunlin (numerous small flocks touched down briefly), 7 Bonaparte's gulls, 5 great black-backed gulls, 2 bald eagles, belted kingfisher, 4 horned larks, 1 tree swallow, ruby-crowned kinglet, and 10 yellow-rumped warblers.  On the way home along Rte. 7 I saw Am. kestrel in Ashtabula Co. and pileated woodpecker in Trumbull
 Co.  On 10/13-14 I did some heavy searching around NE Mahoning Co. in Coitsville and Poland Twps., and found some good stuff:  wood ducks, ruddy duck, 30 turkey vultures, Cooper's hawk, red-tailed hawks, red-shouldered hawk, killdeers, RED-HEADED WOODPECKER, 15 red-bellied woodpeckers, yellow-bellied sapsucker, hairy woodpecker, Carolina wrens, 35 e. bluebirds, Am. robins, 4 n. mockingbirds, golden-crowned kinglet, ruby-crowned kinglets, 30 cedar waxwings, ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, 2 Nashville warblers, 5 yellow-rumped warblers, e. towhee, field sparrows, chipping sparrows, song sparrows, swamp sparrows, 15 white-throated sparrows, 8 white-crowned sparrows, and dark-eyed juncos.  Later, Craig
