Greetings - This September, birders yet again have the opportunity for multiple "pelagic" birding trips on Lake Erie seeking rare jaegers and gulls. Last year, Local Patch trips had mind-blowing looks at Long-tailed, Parasitic and Pomarine Jaegers, and Little and Sabine's Gulls. These boat trips are thrilling opportunities to seek rarities and discover fall migration on Lake Erie-- now in our fourth year of massive success. This year, four September dates are offered, targeting Long-tailed and Parasitic Jaegers, and Little and Sabine's Gulls. Trips are strategically designed to cover an exceptionally productive area, 8-15+ miles offshore in the shallow Central Basin, during peak rarity season. 2015 dates: September 5th, September 13th, September 16th, September 23rd. Trips are 8 AM - 3 PM. Each 7 hour open water birding excursion departs Vermilion, OH. Guides: Gabe Leidy, Jerry Talkington, Vic Fazio III, Jen Brumfield. Registration begins Tuesday, July 21st.
