I decided to get some birding in today before work, so I stopped at Whetstone Park in the Clintonville neighborhood of Columbus. I first birded the ravine and then the area near the casting pond. Not a whole lot going on, with only one warbler (American Redstart). Highlights included: 1 Olive-sided Flycatcher at the junction of bike trail with the path leading west from the casting pond, got excellent views of the bird as it sallied forth from a perch high in a tree to catch insects 2 Great Crested Flycatchers in the ravine, actively calling to each other 1 Barred Owl, calling at about 7am in the ravine 2 Swainson's Thrushes in the ravine 1 juvenile Cooper's Hawk, harassed by Blue Jays in the Ravine 2 singing Baltimore Orioles Whetstone Park is located on Hollenback Drive, west of High Street and between North Broadway and West Henderson.
