Just returned from visiting the St Marys Fish Hatchery --
The Greater White Fronted Geese are still present as is the Canvasback!
AND!! There was a huge flock of Sandhill Cranes flying over - probably the flock Russ reported circling the Mercer Wildlife Area.
There are MANY, MANY Mallards and Canada Geese also. And we found 4 Black Ducks amongst the Mallards.

They are in the corn field just north of the Fish Hatchery. This is private land with 3-4 wetlands.
And Mr DU (Canvas back is still in "his" pond! Only ONE great BLue Heron seen - only one seen for many days!!
 
The Euro Collared Dove is hanging at the Feed Mill in Celina.
 
Enjoy,
 
Jill
Auglaize County
