Went over to Lawrence Woods in Kenton this morning and spotted and photographed a Great Crested Flycatcher talking to it's mate.

Lawrence woods is one of those quiet out of the way places that either you stumble across it or a fellow birder/flower lover directs you...So here is a google map:

Easy walking, it has a boardwalk.  As you can see from the map, there is a pond...with a blind.  And if you are careful you will see a Rhino. (look for marker #2 then you'll understand).

While at the pond I saw wood ducks, and a teal...but they scattered as soon as the saw my head in the blind.  Also while I was on the trail, I saw several other flycatchers and gnatcatchers.   I heard a Peewee, and a Red-eye Vireo.

A partial list includes
Red eyed Vireo (heard)
Pewee(heard)
Goldfinches
Female common Yellowthroat.
Great Crested flycatcher
Blue-grey gnatcatcher
Meadowlarks
Orchard Orioles
and 
Cedar Waxwings, of which I still didn't get a good picture... it started raining and I had to head to head for home.

Happy Birding
and God Bless
