I stopped by the Flats this morning and the black crowned night herons were readily visible from both sides of Merwin St. There were at least 25 of them. There were also three double crested cormorants. That was cool enough, but to top things off there was also a little blue heron, the first one I've ever seen. It was right at the base of the river with the other herons. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
