i hit euclid beach park yesterday afternoon @ 4:30. it was 72* with strong winds from the north (and slightly west). waves 3+ feet for sure. walked starting @ restrooms to the feral cat community, down thru the woods to the shore, over to the pier, along the beach all the way to the restrooms @ VA, then back up the walkway. Terns - 2 (either Forster's and/or Common) too far away to positively ID Turkey Vultures - 2 Barn Swallows - 30+ (more closer to Euc Creek) Ring-billed Gulls - 50+ (in 2 groups along beach - half in Euc Beach, other at far eastern end) Herring Gulls - 6 (1 adult - 5 imms) Cedar Waxwings - 3 American Robin - 2 it was probably too windy/wavy for shorebirds today on the beaches/shore. only flying birds were the swallows and an occasional gull (although the terns were both fly-bys) buster ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
