Spent the entire day birding the Wilds and surrounding area. Had a brief (20 seconds) look at an adult GOLDEN EAGLE flying north of International Road alongside a female harrier. The eagle looked massive compared to the harrier. The eagle dipped behind the hill, headed towards the Wilds parking area. This was around 11:15 am. Numerous Rough-legged Hawks and Northern Harriers almost everywhere I went. All color phases of both species. Also had a gorgeous male GREEN-WINGED TEAL in a pond along International Road. Other waterfowl in the area were Gadwall, Am. Black Duck, Ring-necked Duck, Bufflehead, Hooded Merganser, Mute and Trumpeter Swans, Canada Goose, Mallard. A flock of 50+ Wild Turkeys in an agricultural area south of the Wilds property. Numerous Am. Tree Sparrows around and a few Horned Larks. I stayed in the area until dark but could not find a single Short-eared Owl. No shrikes either. Oh well -- excuses for going back soon. Good birding, Kyle Carlsen Washington County ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
