I spent some time on the sandbar Wednesday evening (July 9). While no huge numbers, Conneaut always seems to produce some worthwhile sightings. All of the shorebirds were present when I arrived, and were still on the ground when I left around 8:30 PM. Am. Avocet - 1 Willet - 1 S.B. Dowitcher - 1 L. Yellowlegs - 1 Least Sandpiper - 2 Other notable birds: Bonaparte's Gull - 9 Caspian Tern - 2 Forster's Tern - 4 Osprey - 1 (flyover) Cedar Waxwing - 5 Bob Krajeski North Kingsville, Ashtabula Co. ----------------------------------------- "PLEASE NOTE: The preceding information may be confidential or privileged.
