I spent the weekend camping at Pike Lake State Park (in Pike County, just south of Bainbridge, OH). First, until the Ohio Birds collective gets tired of RBNU Records, I'll happily report that the Red Breasted Nuthatch was abundant in all available evergreens this weekend at Pike Lake. Other birds of note: Blackburnian Warbler Yellow Throated Warbler Cape May Warbler Black Throated Green Warbler Tennessee Warbler Black and White Warbler Chestnut Sided Warbler Bay Breasted/Blackpoll (not sure, I am, afterall, an amateur birder!) Scarlet Tanager Yellow Throated Vireo Screech Owls All the other usual birds for Southern Ohio this time of year, including 5 species of woodpeckers, several indigenous flycatchers, chickadees and titmice, etc. Pike Lake is a beautiful habitat and a great destination for birding any time of the year.
