Sat at 7:30pm, very hard to find in east pond, but we did. --- On Sat, 5/8/10, Jeff Wolfinger <[log in to unmask]> wrote: From: Jeff Wolfinger <[log in to unmask]> Subject: [Ohio-birds] Purple Gallinule Update To: [log in to unmask] Date: Saturday, May 8, 2010, 4:45 PM This afternoon, about 3:30, the 'purple chicken' crossed the path and went to the east pond. A much larger pond with taller spadderdock that will surely make it hard to find. Don't know what made him move. I did witness yesterday the mink stalking him. The purple chicken wasn't fooled and flew away from him in plenty of time. All in all a good week with our guest.
