Today I went on an off trail hike at Highbanks and got to see parts of the wetlands I never saw before. The species I saw were ring-necked duck, wood duck, ruddy duck, blue-winged teal, redhead, mallard, and killdeer. Also seen in the nature preserve was a pileated woodpecker. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
