Sorry everyone...didn't get around to posting this yesterday. The north end of Hoover still had a nice number of shorebirds early yesterday morning. I only had time to hit the boardwalk and the Wiese Road access point. The flats off of Wiese Rd. had a large concentration of 'peeps' at sunrise. There was considerable movement of each flock so it was hard to get accurate numbers but here are the estimates I ended up with: Shorebirds: Semipalmated Plover 16 Killdeer 20 Greater Yellowlegs 1 Lesser Yellowlegs 3 Semipalmated Sandpiper 56 WESTERN SANDPIPER 1 Least Sandpiper 35 WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER 1 Stilt Sandpiper 5 Short-billed Dowitcher 6 Other Highlights from the boardwalk: Black Tern 1 Red-breasted Nuthatch 1 ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
