Hi all, Dick Miller asked me to pass this along, for anyone seeking one of these beasts around central Oho, where Common Loons are decidedly not common at this time of year: "Jim, For those needing a Common Loon for a year bird there is one in the Canal Cove Subdivision north of E. Waterloo St. on Callie St. Google Earth: 39 50' 33.91N 082 47' 58.95W 4:04 PM/Thur. May 21 Dick Miller" This is in Canal Winchester, which is just southeast of the city of Columbus, and can be reached via U.S. 33.
