A quick check of the Findlay Reservoir #1 this afternoon turned up an unexpected 32 Ruddy Turnstones and a adult Laughing Gull. The majority of the turnstones were in striking breeding plumage, in my opinion one of the best looking shorebirds that can be seen in Ohio! Other sightings include: Wood Duck 4 Common Loon 1 Great Blue Heron 5 Killdeer 8 Spotted Sandpiper 6 Ruddy Turnstone 32 Laughing Gull 1 nice breeding plumage adult Bonaparte's Gull 2 Ring Billed Gull 103 Herring Gull 17 Purple Martin 4 Tree Swallow 26 Bank Swallow 3 Barn Swallow 15 Savannah Sparrow 11 Rick&Jackie Counts Wyandot Co. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
