Hello Birders, What an incredible early afternoon at Killbuck Marsh! We arrived at the Willow Road/Clark Road area and was greeted by 9 terns of two different species! Okay, so there aren't many terns that make their way through my backyard here in Holmes County, so while hubby was keeping an eye out on these awesome birds, I quickly "turned" to my Sibley guide to try to determine what species were frequenting the area. After a bit of deliberation, we believe them to be Caspian Terns (they were quite large) and 2 Arctic Terns (long tales and smaller than the others). After consulting a few other sources, I feel fairly comfortable making this assertion. However, it would be great if someone else in the area saw these birds or is able to pay a visit to see if we are on the right track. These would be life birds for me! Sadly, I did not bring the camera along (of course!) especially since we were awarded with a lot of great looks! In addition, we also saw the following at Clark and Willow: Osprey Yellow Warblers (heard) Spotted Sandpiper (2) which we followed up Clark Road and was able to get some great looks. Cemetery Road brought the following: Blue-winged Teal 2 common moorhens What a day! Glad we didn't let the rain keep us away! Happy birding, Michele Skolmutch between Nashville and Glenmont, Holmes County. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
