I spent some hours poking around in eastern Mahoning Co. yesterday.  Starting near home in the "greater Lowellville" area, I saw 2 wood ducks, Cooper's hawk, red-shouldered hawk, red-tailed hawk, n. flicker, and purple finch.  At Evans L. were 20 hooded mergansers, red-breasted merganser, 1000 ring-billed gulls, 80 herring gulls, and an adult lesser black-backed gull.  I suspect that this one LBBG is faithfull to this site, and is responsible for all or most of the sightings there over the last few years.  The gulls only seem to roost at Evans L., spreading out to feed in ag fields and the large landfill/dump in Poland Twp. during the day.  My last stop yesterday was at Pine L.  Birds there included 325 Canada geese (some orange-collared migrants plus some smaller-race birds also), 3 wood ducks, mallards, Am. black ducks, gadwalls, n. pintail, n. shovelers, green-winged teal, hooded mergansers, common merganser, 50 ruddy ducks, c. loon, 3 great
 blue herons, imm. bald eagle, 400 ring-billed gulls, n. mockingbird, and Am. tree sparrows.  Later, Craig
