Lake Hope State Park & Zaleski State Forest are located 15 miles from
Nelsonville (Rte 33) off of Rte Rte 278. Below is a list of some of the
Birds seen Tues (Aug 25th)

   I arrived at 5:55 am & the Whip-poor-will started singing as it was
circling its territory. I heard another far away

  I explored a Shelter Woods & a Clear Cut along a ridge. I came across 2
different flocks of Warblers, Vireos, & Songbirds. I watched a flock of 8
Warblers & 2 Vireos for 30 minutes. They left & returned. I watched them
for another 30 minutes. I then came across another flock. I was getting
great & multiple looks. I then saw a Red-shouldered Hawk circling. The bird
then started flying toward me. It then pulled in its wings & dove into the
woods. The birds disappeared!
