Yesterday and today I searched for the Mississippi Kite(s) on Reed Road in notheastern Knox County without success. However, I was able to get very good looks at the Common Raven which has been seen by many observers for at least the past two years. The raven was on Reed Road and was seen on both days across the road from the large dairy farm. It frequents a row of trees in the middle of hay and corn fields and perches on one of the dead snags along this narrow corridor of trees. Reed Road is a short road and the dairy farm is situated in the middle of a valley about 1/2 mile across. One can park on the high ground on either end of the valley for good observation of the entire area. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
