The shovelers have been joined by a female red-breasted merganser and there are 12 ruddy ducks further out by the marina.

Subject: [Ohio-birds] Hoover freezing over

Good morning,

Looking out my office window, I can see that Hoover is freezing over so it is good to spot waterfowl congregating in the open water above the dam.  Just thought I would let people know who might be heading out today.  There are 4 Northern Shovelers directly behind the Hoover Office (not normal for them), a pied-billed grebe out from them, a raft of Hooded Mergansers (and possibly others by open water out from the marina and lots of gulls.

Happy Birding!

Elayna
