Hello Everyone, Rita Schneider phoned a few minutes ago to report 20 American White Pelicans from the observation tower at Pickerel Creek Wildlife Area, on the north side of U.S. Highway 6, about 7 miles east of Fremont. A little more than half a mile east of County Road 256 is a parking area for the observation tower. A map of the area (and other birding hotspots) can be found here: http://www.bsbobird.org/birding/birding_hotspots.htm Good birding, ~kim Kimberly Kaufman Executive Director Black Swamp Bird Observatory 13551 West State Route 2 Oak Harbor, Ohio 43449 419-898-4070 www.bsbobird.org www.ohioyoungbirders.org www.biggestweekinamericanbirding.com Become a fan of BSBO and Ohio Young Birders Club on Facebook: www.facebook.com/BSBOBIRD www.faceboo.com/OHIOYOUNGBIRDERS Follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/BSBOBIRD ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
