Greetings, There is currently an American Avocet on the beach at Alum Creek SP (4:20 pm 8/31/2013). It's way to the south, but hanging despite all of the people. Good birding, Joe Hammond Columbus, OH ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
