Took a short drive this afternoon: On Smith Road west of Greenville: 5 Wilson's snipe, 1 kestrel On Hillgroove-Woodington Road at the intersection of St. Rt. 118 north of Greenville a flock of about 70 pectoral sandpipers with 1 lone golden plover. There were, of course, other birds, but these were my first of the season shorebirds besides killdeer and snipe. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
