Kenn Kaufman is on the boardwalk right now. He hasn't seen the bird himself, but he's talked to credible birders who *did* and their description sounds good. Kenn also talked to Ohio Birder Kurt Wray <http://www.facebook.com/kurt.wray.5> who has photos. They're very dark and Kurt is working to lighten them, but Kenn says that in the first images, it looks good for Townsend's! The bird was last seen near #11. Here's a map of the boardwalk for those that aren't familiar. http://www.bsbo.org/birding/pdf/magee_marsh_boardwalk_map_and_text.pdf Kimberly Kaufman Executive Director Black Swamp Bird Observatory Oak Harbor, Ohio 43449 419-898-4070 2011 League of Ohio Sportsmen Conservation Organization of the Year Award 2012 Eastern Maumee Bay Chamber of Commerce Prism Award for Community Improvement www.bsbobird.org <http://www.bsbobird.org/> www.ohioyoungbirders.org <http://www.ohioyoungbirders.org/> www.biggestweekinamericanbirding.com <http://www.biggestweekinamericanbirding.com/> BSBO on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/BSBOBIRD> and Twitter <http://www.twitter.com/BSBOBIRD> OYBC on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/ohioyoungbirders> BIRDING OHIO <http://www.facebook.com/groups/BirdingOhio/> on Facebook ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
