Blendon Woods Metro Park is located in the northeast corner of Columbus off of I 270 and Rte 161. Take the Little Turtle Way exit. Below is a list of Birds seen here the last 5 days. (May 7-11 ) The area around the Bird Blinds at Thoreau Lake has been the most productive area. Lake Trail also has been good. The woodland trails-Ripple Rock, Brookside(beginning 100 yards),and Overlook(from beginning to the steps). I would like to thank the many people who helped find these Birds. There are many good eyes in this park!
