Sunday with the help of 3 amazing Mentor birders I was able to hear and see a Virginia Rail (as well as Sora and American Bittern) at the Wakerobin Trail boardwalk of Mentor Marsh. If you visit be very quiet,stealthy and patient! They are easily spooked. Seen along the section preceding the pond. American Pipits were reported at Best Nature Preserve, Chardon, earlier in the week, in the scrape.
