Quick post from the Conneaut Public Library at 11:00 AM -- Lots of waterbirds moving through at Conneaut harbor this morning.  Totals so far include (at minimum): 45 brant in 5 flocks with 25 in the harbor now, a fair number of ducks including a surf scoter flyby, 275 double-crested cormorants, 2 black-bellied plovers, 23 sanderlings, 75 dunlins, 100 Bonaparte's gulls.  Not that many gulls present.  Winds N/NE, intermittent rain until last half hour when it got steadier.  Bad weather = good birding now!!  Craig Holt, Lowellville
