Greetings---I just finished watching (twice) the broadcast of this week's "Nature" show on PBS, featuring breeding birds and mammals of Ellesmere Island in the Canadian High Arctic.  These birds include some of Ohio's rarest visitors, including gyrfalcon, king eider, long-tailed jaeger (skua), snowy owl, and Baird's sandpiper.  This is a remarkable film with some extraordinary footage; if you didn't see it tonight, be sure to catch a rerun!!  Cheers, Craig
