Greetings---Started this afternoon at Frohring Meadows in Geauga Co. Juvie killdeers, savannah sparrows, and a bobolink were found. This place will be good for a variety of field/grassland birds come fall. Buff-breasted sandpipers are definitely possible here. On to Ashtabula Co. At Orwell Marsh were 3 blue-winged getting frisky and a hooded merganser w/young. On to Conneaut; today was OK there with a semipalmated plover, 11 semipalmated sandpipers, 4 WESTERN SANDPIPERS, 2 dunlins, 7 imm. Bonaparte's gulls, willow flycatcher, warbling vireos, marsh wrens, yellow warblers, purple martins, bank swallows, etc. All of the WESAs were imms. w/2 first-cycle birds and 2 second/first summer birds. I got to study the peeps as close as 10 feet away from my car (blind). Later, Craig
