Greetings! I just got word that 30 American White Pelicans just dropped into Big Island Wildlife Area. ...I just missed them. They must be in the most Eastern pond on LaRue Prospect...That is where they usually hang out when they are here. They should hang around for a day or two. Possible Ross's Goose hanging around the western side of the center pond in that same complex... Marsh wrens heard and seen calling along the western edge of the western pond. Lots of other good birds around big Island. Shorebirds are all along SR 95. Check the raised pond along SR 95 for shore birds as well, it is still muddy from being drained. Happy birding and God bless, Steve J. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
