AOU 45th Supplement Highlights  July 2004

 

Featured State/Province: Ohio                   OHIO Adams Lake State Park 38.81 N   83.53 W Adams County is at the edge of the Appalachian mountain range. Chuck-will's-widow, Wild Turkey, Blue Grosbeak and other species are often easier to find here than anywhere else in Ohio. Crane Creek / Magee Marsh / Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge 41.37 N   83.09 W Spring migration here may be even better than Point Pelee -- and two hours closer if you live in Ohio! Go visit the Oak Openings and Irwin Prairie on the west side of Toledo as well. Green Lawn Cemetery and Arboretum 39.94 N   83.04 W This is a great spot during spring migration. Birder's are always welcome. You should see almost 50 species of warblers, thrushes and vireos in early May. Headlands Beach State Park 41.73 N   81.33 N There are a whole series of birding spots along Lake Erie, just east of Cleveland. Spring migration is very good here, as is the hawkwatching. Continue over to Mentor Marsh State Nature Preserve and finally, the power plant in Eastlake. Killdeer Plains 40.65 N   83.31 N In winter, look for hawks and owls. Check the tall evergreens very carefully for Long-eared Owls. At dusk you should see Short-eared Owls skimming over the fields. Depending on water levels, shorebirds and waterfowl can be abundant, especially in migration.

Featured Hot Spot: High Island 29.33 N   94.24 W Spring warbler fallouts can be spectacular. If you just flew all the way across the Gulf of Mexico, you would plop down here to rest, too! Visit in April and early May.

Featured Organization: Western Field Ornithologists
