4/10/11 - Malek Park, Conneaut (Ashtabula Co.) 0900-1430 Observers: Emil Bacik, Gabe Leidy, Jerry Talkington A stunning day; the dam really burst in early afternoon coinciding with the arrival of the strong warm front - birds were literally still streaming overhead when we regretfully headed home. Not muchtime to elaborate now, but here's a quick tally: Turkey Vulture 1325 Osprey 9 Bald Eagle 3 Northern Harrier 58 Sharp-shinned Hawk 1036 Cooper's Hawk 35 NORTHERN GOSHAWK 1 juv. Red-shouldered Hawk 33 Broad-winged Hawk 13 SWAINSON'S HAWK 1 light-morph juv; hung around longer than we could have ever dared to hope - spiraling overhead several times and even allowing nice scope views Red-tailed Hawk 381 Rough-legged Hawk 1 American Kestrel 218 Merlin 6 Peregrine Falcon 5 Sandhill Crane 1 Good birding - Gabe Leidy Cleveland ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
