This PM I found a lone White-rumped Sandpiper on the Cowan Lake spillway. I had little luck reaching others to confirm it but Jim Hickman went out only to find that the bird had either gone or moved to the other Cowan mudflat at the end of Lotus Trail. There I saw: 9 Least Sandpipers 4 Semipalmated Plovers 2 Semipalmated Sandpipers 4 Spotted Sandpipers 2 Pectoral Sandpipers - with more birds hidden on the other side of the mudflat 1 Blue-winged Teal 3 Great Blue Heron 1 Female Wood Duck with 8 young And along the trail - on territory 3 American Redstart 3 Red-eyed Vireo 1 Prothonotary Warbler Hot Weather Cheers, Larry Gara ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
