I was very lucky to photograph the Franklin's Gulls?at East Fork Lake in Southwestern Ohio earlier this week.
Looking back on the Cincinnati Bird Club Data Base, there were only 14 sightings?since 1989 at East Fork Lake, less than once each year.?Caesar's Creek?provided the only other?site for this bird in Southwestern Ohio.
The pictures can be seen at www.pbase.com/nsxbirder/franklins_gull. ?There are also pictures of the American White Pelican at Hueston Woods State?Park about 2 weeks ago. ????
