Hello. I started off the day by adding a Black-throated Blue Warbler to my OWU year list. At about 8:30am, I watched a MASSIVE line of Double-crested Cormorants fly south at a ~2000ft altitude. They were so high up, but I could count in groups of ten. Later, I received a call from a couple of ornithology students, Will Condit and Justus Nethero, and Dr. David Johnson that the Biodiversity of Flowering Plants course had flushed a Least Bittern by the marsh behind Meijer on route 36. I was a tiny bit skeptical, but off I went. Sure enough, the bittern flushed once more during my visit! I got perfect views of this corn-colored bird, with black cap and back, yellow bill and all (OWU/town bird #197!, starting to get close!).
