Susan Jones, Karin Tanquist, Pat Coy and I, had a fabulous day at Killdeer Plains February 23. A list of birds follows. The highlight bird was the Northern Shrike. The Short-eared Owls were out in force by 4 p.m., along with Northern Harriers. We watched a harrier harass an owl to get the owl to drop its catch. It appeared neither got the meal that the owl dropped. Here's what we had on a sunny Saturday: Red-tailed Hawk American Tree Sparrow Horned Lark Snow Bunting Canada Goose Rock Pigeon Baled Eagle Northern Harrier Song Sparrow Mourning Dove American Robin Red-bellied Woodpecker Northern Cardinal Dark-eyed Junco Rough-legged Hawk Northern Shrink Tufted Titmouse Blue Jay Pileated Woodpecker Northern Flicker House Sparrow American Crow Long-eared Owl Short-eared Owl American Kestrel Tundra Swan Mallard American Black Duck Eastern Meadowlark ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
