Nothing of intense interest, but a continuing retinue of migrants at
easily-accessible Blue Wing Pond at Pickerington Ponds. Shorebird
habitat is pretty good, and birds seen are different every day; ditto
for waterfowl. If you move closer than the mowed grass you'll just spook
the birds and see fewer of them.

pair of n. pintails
10 prs n. shovelers
20 prs g-w. teals
4 wd ducks
2 mallards
5 mute swans, yuk
pr. coots
4 p-b grebes

3 l. yellowlegs
dunlin
sanderling
6 semi sp
7 pectoral sp
4 l-b dowitchers
g b herons, g. egrets, kingfisher, kestrel, etc.
no cranes today. Ellis Pond continues to be spookily unwelcoming to
birds in general.
        Intense weather could change things today & tomorrow.
