Took a drive along county roads NW of Fremont. Saw many Horned Larks along roadways and in corn stubble fields. Counted over 50 in a 8-mile stretch of CR's, mostly in small groups of 2-3, with many single ones. Also, behind the Fremont Water filtration plant within the city limits, I see an immature Bald eagle frequently perched in the trees along the Sandusky River. The output stream (25 feet wide) is warm water from the filtration plant and remains open during winter. Saw thousands of "shiners" in the water. Many RB gulls there, and at dusk mallards and diving ducks enjoy the man-made feast. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
