Those of us in SW Ohio have very little shorebird habitat so those of you near the lake must forgive us for getting excited about observing a few, very close. This AM the mudflats at the end of Mound Road looked great and they are starting to attract migrants.Over the years some rarities have shown up there. Today I had:
6 Least Sandpipers
2 Spotted Sandpipers
1 Solitary Sandpiper
8 Killdeer
The resident Green Heron

Happy Birder Cheers,   Larry Gara
