At 7:00am there was a Piping Plover on the swimming beach at Maumee Bay State Park. As you entered the beach parking lot if you went to the lot closest to the lake and traveled to the far end of the lot the bird was on the inland swimming beach right there. The bird was with Dunlins, Lesser Yellowlegs and some peeps that I believe were Least Sandpipers, but I lost track of them when I saw the Piping Plover. Sorry I didn't get this out sooner, but I've been on the road all day and didn't have access to the internet. I did tell some people I met at Black Swamp Bird Observatory when I stopped on my way to Cleveland so I hope the word got out.
