Least Bitterns active this morning (2 confirmed, but possibly/probably at
least 3) between 6:30-8:00 (and beyond?) at Glacier Ridge Metro Park
(Columbus area) in the "circle pond" by the parking lot and the ponds on
either side of the boardwalk. Probable King Rail(s) also reportedly heard
(but not seen) at both locations.

I was there during roughly the same period on Monday (7/18) and saw at least
5 different Virginia Rails and 4 Soras AT THE SAME TIME from the observation
platform. Quite the Rail-Fest.

Good birding to all.
