I know it's not Ohio, but I just got back from a week in NW Pa., in Crawford Co. about 22 miles due south of Erie, Pa. I toured the "Hemlock Hill Biological Research Station" there with Bridget Stutchbury(Wrote "The Silence of the Songbirds") and Gene Morton. Here's my list: Merlin- 1 Red-tail Hawk- 5 Kestrel- 3 Tree Sparrows- 7 Song Sparrow- 1 WB Nuthatch- 4 Hairy Woodpecker- 1 Downey Woodpecker- 2 Pileated Woodpecker- 1 Black-capped Chickadee- 13 Wild Turkey- 100+ (Not released, totally wild) Blue Jay- 4 N. Cardinal- 8 Bluebird- 1 Ring-neck Pheasant- 500(released from Pa. Pheasant Farm; i.e. Red Fox Winter buffet) Dark-eyed Junco- 5 Tufted Titmouse- 2 Driving back home to Fremont, on Rt. 2 between Huron and Sandusky, saw 7 separate flocks of Starlings in medium strip, hundreds in each flock. Visit the "CREATE A WILDLIFE FRIENDLY YARD" site and view the video of a Peregrine Falcon killing a RT Hawk. http://wildlifefriendlylawn.blogspot.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
