To my surprise I saw a male Red-breasted Merganser on OSU campus this
evening. The bird, an adult male, was foraging near a Double-crested
Cormorant on the Olentangy River under the Woody Hayes bridge (by the
stadium). I just had my phone, which has a crummy camera, but the image can
be seen on my eBird checklist here:

I watched the bird feed (with good looks) for ~10 minutes. I haven't
encountered a RBME around this date in previous years.
