Quick highlights from Lorain Co for Dane Adams, Emil Bacik, and I:

At Oberlin Reservoir, thirty or so miles south of Lake Erie, we encountered a "mini-E 72nd St" situation.  Incredibly, here were the highlights:  THAYER'S, ICELAND (3), LESSER BLACK-BACKED (8), and GLAUCOUS (6) Gulls.  Photos of some of these species appear at http://flickr.com/photos/28939750@N05/?saved=1

A ROSS'S GOOSE in a front yard pond along West Rd, just south of Caley National Wildlife Woods was another highlight.  This bird was discovered in this area a week ago by Marian Kraus, per Larry Rosche.

Killdeer, TRurkey Vulture, and multiple harriers and Rough-legged Hawks were viewed throughout the day.

Good birding -
