The Townsend's Solitaire just showed up in a crab apple tree at the Quarry condos on Kelleys Island. Seems to like the tree in front of Condo Building #9 which is where the Bohemian Waxwing was several years ago. The bird was still feeding at 9:15 AM. The condos are in "downtown" Kelleys Island. The bird hadn't been seen in 2 weeks. Problems for people hoping to chase this bird. No ferry today. Tomorrow the schedule is 8, 9, noon, 4 and 5. Leaves the island on the half hour. Cost is $19 per person and $30 for car round trip. You can fly from Port Clinton on Griffin Air but I don't know the schedule. The cost is about $100 round trip. There are no lodgings on the island that I know of. And no restaurants open. The Island Market is open from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM. On the weekends it maybe open longer. I plan to be here until Saturday. Very limited access to internet. Cell 567-278-2300 Will try to post photos when I figure it out. Tom -- H.
