Greetings - Late this evening, a single Red-necked Phalarope was observed feeding in classic behavior ~300 feet offshore, on the still, calm waters of Erie, off of the high bluff of Sunset Park in Willoughby (Lake County). In addition, at least 30 Bonaparte's Gulls passed by, west to east. best of birding - Jen Jen Brumfield [log in to unmask] Cleveland, Ohio 330-701-6452 Bird Illustrator / www.jenbrumfield.com Birding Tour Guide (Ohio), Local Patch Birding / www.jenbrumfield.com Birding Tour Guide (worldwide), Tropical Birding / www.tropicalbirding.com Outdoor Education Specialist/Artist, Cleveland Metroparks / www.clemetparks.com Nikon Birding Optics ProStaff / www.nikonusa.com ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
