I was up in Kenton today on business and had a chance to swing through Killdeer Plains Wildlife Area on my way back. It was fairly devoid of birds (at least the kind you can see from your car during a quick drive-by), but there were a couple highlights. There are hunters around, so staying in or close to the car is the only good option for Killdeer Plains right now. Waterfowl: 2 Mallards at the reservoir 7 Tundra Swans at the pond on TR123 No other waterfowl observed Raptors: 3 Red-tailed Hawks 4 American Kestrels 1 Northern Harrier Others: Red-headed Woodpecker at Pond 33 Lots of Blue Jays Northern Flicker Killdeer Plains is in Wyandot county, just northeast of the village of Marseilles on route 67.
