Spent a few hours birding around these migrant traps along the Scioto River in Columbus. South of Downtown, I hiked around Scioto Audubon & Berliner Park, then drove out to Dublin to check on Kiwanis Park & O'Shaughnessy Dam. Migrant numbers were uneven, with no site having 'fallout' numbers. Highlights included Cormorants - they're now easily the most common waterbird along the Scioto, which may not be a good thing Green Heron - 1 rather late bird was at Kiwanis Great Egrets - at least 6 were fishing in the low water along the river at Scioto Audubon Turkey Vultures - a flock of 60 was roosting around O'Shaughnessy Dam Sapsuckers - singles were at both Scioto Audubon and Berliner Park bikepath Flycatchers - there were still a Wood Pewee and a E.Phoebe at Scioto Audubon Vireos - a Philadelphia was at O'Shaughnessy Dam (Frink Park), while Blue-headed and Red-eyed were along the Berliner bikepath Wrens - House Wrens were at every stop, which is unusual in these riparian sites Thrushes - Swainson's were calling at every stop, which is much more typical of these riverside forests Mimids - Catbirds were at every stop, and a Brown Thrsher was at Scioto Audubon CedarWaxwings - small flocks at every stop, topped by 40 at Kiwanis Park Warblers - no big numbers, but did have Parula, Tennessee, Magnolia, Black-thr.Green, Blackburnian, Redstart, and Com.Yellowthroat IndigoBunting - 1 was actually singing briefly at O'Shaughnessy Dam Sparrows - few, and only the expected Chipping and Songs ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
