I had great views of the juvenile Golden Eagle at The Wilds today. It was 
first seen flying near Cumberland Road between International and Prouty 
Road- with a look lasting almost a minute, most of which was spent by me 
fumbling for my camera, only to discover the battery was at home plugged 
into a kitchen outlet. So no photos:( It was later seen briefly perched in 
a tree on International Road east of the visitor center. A good amount of 
time was devoted to searching for the shrike, but no luck. A single Snow 
Bunting flew while we were driving down a road (off Rural Dale Rd, not 
sure of name).  I was with the Birder Who Shall Not Be Named, due to work 
conflict today, who hit #100 birds for January. Golden Eagle was bird #99. 
A stop at the Olentangy River near OSU at dusk netted 4 Black-crowned 
Night Herons, #100. I am at #104 for January!
