I hit Great Miami River spots. It’s picking up down here! Although nothing new
For the big year. My highlights were 26 Cedar Waxwings hawking insects 
off the river at Riverside Natural area. Post breeding flocking. I am starting to
Find shorebirds down here. Nothing out of the ordinary. Like Dark County! 
Least, spotted, pec.  Both Yellowlegs. Semipalm Plover. Best spot was a 
Lack of water retention pond near new warehouses along Seward. Although
That could use some rain! I'll be checking here frequently. 31 Barn Swallows 
Here. They are staging!

I hit Lost Bridge in Hamilton county first. Least, Spotted, Greater Yellowlegs.
Well, that’s a start!

The smaller white herons - egrets continue at the Seward Rd. Retention pond.
5 were way….. too far! A Little Blue was close for a nice study. 

Etc. not sure of the weather or my timing for Monday. I might try VOA again
For Sedge Wren if everything goes well here at the house. And I can get out
Early!

A couple thousand Starlings streaming to roost at dusk as I sat at a traffic light. 
Driving home from the Ellis area. I like numbers! 

Nighthawks as I was driving. Before dusk.

Good birding all.
