Ohio Countdown


check the drawings by





Well, well, well . .  fall migration has started. Time to get into birding mode. First come the sandpipers, so look for habitats that host low water. Then the warblers are coming back through the forest, so lets go walk in the woods some. Then maybe if we're lucky, some rarity . . . like a code 3 . . could make an appearance in Ohio. So be on the lookout and remember to get out and BIRD!

Below is my list of seen recently, and the remaining Ohio birds I can get thru December. Wish me luck
