I visited this forest corridor along the Scioto River this morning, and found it to be much the same as the other local riparian and reservoir areas - migrant swallows and kingbirds starting to appear, while other residents are still finishing nesting. I also made a side trip to Liberty Township Woods and Deer Haven Preserve, but found nothing but residents there. Notables included: Cormorants - 8 were along the booms above O'Shaughenssy dam Herons - nothing but Great Blues, but they were quite common along the corridor, especially below the dam Gulls - small #s of Ring-bills were around the dam and the nearby Columbus Zoo, but there was nothing else Pileated Woodpeckers - stray individuals were at Donegal Cliffs Park in the Gorge and at Liberty Township Woods Flycatchers - still some calling Pewees and Acadians at many locations; Pewees were feeding juveniles at Kozcuiscko Park and Liberty Township Woods. E.Kingbirds were at several spots at and above the dam. Swallows - small flocks around the dam and up near Home Rd bridge, were a mix of Trees, barns, and Cliffs Vireos - Red-eyed were still singing at many woods, while the only Warblings were along the Reservoir shore. Warblers - singing Yellows were at several spots along the Reservoir shore, while a yellow-throated san at Dongela Cliffs in the Gorge. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
