The links below are to a mediocre Sora photo and an unknown that might be a Sora chick. The small brown bird seemed pretty competent to be a young bird, and was not "hanging out" with the Sora. It was running along the edge of the water (i.e. not feeding) in the direction of the Sora before I lost it in the cattails. Any ideas what it is? http://www.k8nd.com/Sora_2598.jpg http://www.k8nd.com/Unknown_2656.jpg ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
