I was searching through gulls at the SWACO landfill (Franklin Co. dump;
only the expected 2 species) about half an hour ago when a Peregrine
swooped in and flushed all the gulls and starlings. It disappeared over
the landfill after a crow, stooping then rising as the pair yo-yoed out of
sight.
Currently there are 4 Snow Geese (3 white, 1 blue) with 2 dozen Canadas in
front of the Meijer on London-Groveport Rd. just east of the landfill.
