The Harris's Sparrow is still coming to the feeders at Pickerington Ponds Metro Park, near the Wood Duck blind. Loads of Green-winged Teal are around as well. Nice shorebird habitat near the blind, but there is little cover now to shield you as you walk up to the blind, which means you spook any birds that are close in. Only shorebirds present were Killdeer and Wilson's Snipe, which were actively feeding right out in the open. I did not see any Osprey at the nest platform.

Good birding,
