I stopped by Lake Logan in Hocking County today and observed an excellent diversity of waterfowl in one of the small un-frozen portions of the lake. A scope is necessary to see these birds and they were coming and going the whole time. Best viewing is from the parking/dock area near the middle of the lake. I also heard first and then observed approximately 25 - 30 vocal Killdeer flying overhead in a northeast direction. These birds were loosely associated together and were quite a ways up in the sky. It was nice to see that shorebird silhouette back in our airspace.
