There was a Laughing Gull on the Deer Creek beach this morning (Pickaway/Fayette Counties) along with ~200 Ring-billed, ~10 Bonaparte's, and 2 Herring Gulls, and one each of Common and Forster's Terns. The reservoir is still full and no mudflats area appearing yet.

Otherwise the adjacent wildlife area was loaded with sparrows today (but no Ammodramus noted yet), and a good variety of warblers and vireos were present throughout the wooded areas with the group camping area in the state park especially being loaded with passerines (including Mourning Warbler and Philadelphia Vireo today).
