Returning from visits in Michigan, we stopped along Rt 2 today and drove into Ottawa NWR and Magee Marsh WA. There was a flock of about 200 tundra swans in an open field on the south side of Rt 2, across from Ottawa NWR. We saw two smaller flocks in fields in the same area heading to Michigan last Tuesday. There were also two adult bald eagles on the ground in another open field. At Magee Marsh, we drove across the causeway and on the west side, spotted a northern shrike perched in a sapling towards the north end of the marsh. There were very few birds on Lake Erie and nothing along the boardwalk, at least towards the entrance.
