Greetings---plenty of interesting birds in Mahoning Co. today.  L. Milton had 400 mallards, Am. black ducks, canvasback, redheads, lesser scaup, 20 ring-necked ducks, buffleheads, c. goldeneyes, a hen white-winged scoter, hooded mergansers, Am. coots, 400 ring-billed gulls, and herring gulls.  Evans L. held lesser scaups, buffleheads, 30 hooded mergansers, ruddy duck, 75 Am. coots, 325 ring-billed gulls, herring gulls, and belted kingfisher.  Rural areas of the county produced n. harrier, red-shouldered hawks, red-tailed hawk, Am. kestrels, e. bluebirds, and n. mockingbirds.  I looked hard for a shrike today, but no luck.   Later, Craig
