After reading about the airport fracas in Manasfield, I thought I should add a note about Harrison Co airport and the UPSA's. Even though they understand the rarity and significance of the birds, they are not overly birder friendly for the following reason: In 2007 when the UPSA's were posted, they were visited by several birders. One of which apparently got confused and drove up a taxi road and down the runway while a plane was coming in for a landing! A disaster was narrowly averted only because the pilot saw the car. This is a true story. The airport is keeping their grass mowed close and the birds are rarely seen there this year. Once again, please be on the lookout for a Lark Sparrow ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
