A Horned Grebe in winter plumage was at Beaver Creek State Park in the Sprucevale Area on Monday and Tuesday. It was hanging out in the flooded picnic area only a few inches deep. Hooded Mergs and Mallards were also their along with numerous geese. Also at Beaver Creek, a pair of Bluebirds were checking out the camera nest box at the Beaver Creek Wildlife Education Center. There were two immature bald eagles courting each other along the ohio river near Wellsville OH. They were presenting their acrobatic flying skills with their talens as well as calling to each other. They appeared to be 3-4 years old. Very Mottled look. Approx. 25-30 Tundra/Whistling Swans were seen flying along the river on Saturday morning around 6:00 am. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
