not ohio, but close
 
i hit Hawkfest this morning @ Lake Erie
Metro Park (20 min south of Detroit).
 
from 9:00 until I left at 3:30 there 
were around 30,000 raptors counted.
many passing overhead easily seen 
without optics.
mostly broadies - but mix in baldies,
harriers, sharpies, ospreys and 3+ swainson's.
a resident osprey thrilled the crowd twice
by catching a fish 50 yards upriver and 
carrying the meal directly overhead.
 
good people!
