Just back from the Oxbow Road region of Hoover. Group of 30 Red-breasted Mergansers fishing close in off the north end of the causeway. It's fun watching these guys fish, with the gulls harassing them and making them give up their catch. There was a much bigger group of ducks way out in the main reservoir, between 100 and a 200. Couldn't quite make them out but looked like Lesser Scaup and Ringed-neck. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
