I was able to briefly swing by Killdeer Plains on Monday during a trip
to and from Findlay to Columbus. I did not have a spotting scope, and
did not have time to walk anywhere. But I was able to add two male
shovelers to the list Cheryl produced over the weekend. Didn't get to
see the golden eagle, but lots of other stuff.
