Here in rainy Hopewell Township, western Muskingum County, there were two non-adult-male ruby-throated hummingbirds still zipping around the feeders and the salvia last evening.
They have been dwindling of late, but a few persist, or perhaps drop in on our rural experiment on their southward journey.

Stuck on 219! I had some good warblers today - it can be tricky at times tracking them
Down in overcast conditions. I like a sunny edge. Well, a lot was feeding out along the
Road edge at Glenwood Gardens. Yea! But no Golden winged. Boo. That and Bairds
Sandpiper are probably missed……
Black tern? White Pelican? Cackling Goose?? Etc.
I was at the Headlands festival over the weekend. Fantastic! Migrants everywhere!
I love migration. No shorebirds though. I hit Ashtabula to get on the ebird map. Yea!
That was my last county! Walnut beach was great! Struck out with Whimbrel at
Conneaut. Someday I will tick that for Ohio!
I do hope to get up there again. I want to try the spring also.

Date: 9/21/26 2:48 am From: Robert Thorn <robthorn6...> Subject: [Ohio-birds] AcademyPark,BlendonWoods,9-20: migrants
The few hardy souls who braved the rain squalls to hit this trip to these NE Columbus hotspots found a good fallout punctuated by rain. We started at Academy Park, whose edges offered a good variety of migrants and residents, then went up to nearby Blendon Woods to try to pick up some of Bob McNulty's sightings, with limited success, before another rainstorm closed us out for the morning. I stayed through the rainstorm and birded the early afternoon there, adding only a few things. Notables for the morning included:
Raptors -- Red-shouldered hawks calling at both places; Merlin perched along Creek at Academy Park, so fluffed out trying to dry off that I initially mistook it for a Broad-winged Hawk.
Barred Owls -- 1 flew across the playfields at Academy Park, while another was calling along the Park Road in Blendon Woods
Sapsucker -- 1 was calling west of the Nature Center parking lot at Blendon Woods in both the morning and the afternoon Pileated Wpr -- 1 bird was on a snag at Academy, while 1-2 were calling at Blendon Flycatchers -- multiple Pewees at both spots; also had a Least Flycatcher at Academy and a Willow at Blendon Woods Vireos -- Red-eyed were at both spots, and a Philadelphia and a Warbling were at Academy Thrushes -- Swainsons were numerous at both spots, especially in the forest at Blendon Waxwings - small flocks of Cedar Waxwings were at both sites Warblers -- both sites had multiple small flocks, but poor light made IDing birds tricky. List included Tennessees, Magnolias, Nashville, Bay-breasted (many), Redstarts (Blendon), Black&Whites, Ovenbird (Blendon), and CommonYellowthroats
Sparrows -- surprisingly scarce, with only Songs and Towhee noted, both at Blendon Buntings -- Blendon had multiple Indigo Buntings Blackbirds -- Grackles at both spots, with a flock at Academy. Finches -- nothing beyond the usual House Finches and Goldfinches

Has been great! And there’s no geography here stopping or concentrating. I am
Used to coasts from NJ. But most times out I have experienced good diversity
And numbers! I can’t track down a Golden winged for my big year to save my life!
I have sort of resigned myself to the fact I won’t get it. And just enjoy what’s around!
This isn’t a big miss for me. It’s a normal miss……!
I don't understand the lack of shorebirds on the Great Miami at Lost Bridge.
Conditions look perfect with the water level there. I am still missing Bairds. And
Might miss completely! At 219. I finally picked up Bobolink for the county. Life!
Fernald. Luke’s walk. A great spot!
I will be up at the Headlands festival this weekend. That’s going to be fun!
Good birding all.

Has been slow! I still need Golden winged warbler. It’s proving elusive! But I have beenEnjoying the migrant flocks that are around! It’s been super! Numbers and diversityHave been excellent! Except for Golden-winged…… Armleder has been its usual birdy self. What did surprise me was Glenwood Gardens Yesterday afternoon. Wow! That spot must be a migrant trap. It’s right in the heart ofThe county.
Today was slow. For me. No new birds! And loosing shorebird habitat…….Either From flooding. Or drying out surprisingly. Enjoy these warblers while you can! Good birding all.

There was a modest fallout of migrants at Blacklick Woods this morning, with most of the activity concentrated along the sunny eastern and southern edges of the woods. I birded along the Blacklick Circle Multi-purpose Trail loop, as well as around the Nature Center and the Maple and Buttonbush Trail loops. The forest was fairly quiet, with most of the bird activity along sunny edges. Notables included:
Hummingbirds - 4-5 were fussing over flowers along the Multipurpose loop Woodpeckers - the regulars were augmented by a Red-headed calling along the Maple Trail Flycatchers - lots of Pewees, but also had Phoebe and Great Crested Vireos - only Red-eyed, but they were widespread Thrushes - finally a Swainson's, along the back side of the Buttonbush Trail Warblers - Magnolias, Bay-breasteds, Chestnut-sided, Blackburnians, Black-thr.Blue, Ovenbird, N.Parula, Wilson's Sparrows - nothing unexpected, though numbers were low Icterids - a few Redwings and Grackles, no orioles

Connecticut warbler, female. Front loop of golden rod trail. First saw her with a song sparrow and 2 house wrens in a tree next to the trail. After about a minute, the group moved to the next tree along the path. Then they moved further down the trail into the goldenrod. I lost track of her, but then noticed the house wrens 20 feet down the trail, and Followed them and again got sight of the Conn Warbler. Watched her move one more time until she got to the tree line.

I am getting shorebird envy…… our habitat has gotten good with the rain finally stopping!
The Great Miami at Lost Bridge looks super! But only Killdeer. Sigh….. I did pick up a
Sanderling here. 214 I think now for my Hamilton big year. I’ll check ebird again.
The bean field is a long walk in, it’s at Armleder. It’s been flooded all summer. All our rain!
I am waiting for needed year bird species there! At least shorebirds to look at when I
Do hit here.
Thoughts on why Hamilton doesn’t get many shorebirds? No industry retention ponds?
I give up trying to figure it out…..
I have been hitting other counties just to see shorebirds! Preble and Montgomery mainly.
Tonight looks like a good migrant flight. I'll be out for a few hours looking for passerines.
Good birding all.

Subject: Wilderness Rd this afternoon
This afternoon, David Wiesenberg and I were at Wilderness Rd south of
Blatchleyville (Wayne Co.) and spotted 11 species of shorebirds. A few were
seen along the road at the west shore of the big lake, but nearly all were
seen by walking back the lane next to the farm house, past the trees, and
then hiking back through high weeds to the mudflats. The previously
reported red knot was seen well at close range, as well as a buff-breasted
sandpiper. Species seen and estimated numbers were:
Am golden plover - 1
Killdeer - 50+
Semipalmated plover - 1
Greater yellowlegs - 5
Lesser yellowlegs - 15
Red knot - 1
Least sandpiper - 3
Baird's sandpiper - 3
Pectoral sandpiper - 5
Stilt sandpiper - 7
Buff-breasted sandpiper - 1

Counted 45 Common Nighthawks hunting over a shopping plaza in southern Clintonville, Columbus just now. Mosquitos here are worse than in my memory with all the rain, floods, derechos, etc. Fatten up!

I am getting shorebird envy…… our habitat has gotten good with the rain finally stopping!
The Great Miami at Lost Bridge looks super! But only Killdeer. Sigh….. I did pick up a
Sanderling here. 214 I think now for my Hamilton big year. I’ll check ebird again.
The bean field is a long walk in, it’s at Armleder. It’s been flooded all summer. All our rain!
I am waiting for needed year bird species there! At least shorebirds to look at when I
Do hit here.
Thoughts on why Hamilton doesn’t get many shorebirds? No industry retention ponds?
I give up trying to figure it out…..
I have been hitting other counties just to see shorebirds! Preble and Montgomery mainly.
Tonight looks like a good migrant flight. I'll be out for a few hours looking for passerines.
Good birding all.

Blendon Woods
Connecticut warbler, female. Front loop of golden rod trail. First saw her with a song sparrow and 2 house wrens in a tree next to the trail. After about a minute, the group moved to the next tree along the path. Then they moved further down the trail into the goldenrod. I lost track of her, but then noticed the house wrens 20 feet down the trail, and Followed them and again got sight of the Conn Warbler. Watched her move one more time until she got to the tree line.

Ovenbird. (Single-handedly mobbing the barred owl. The owl must have noted the effort the little guy was putting in, and moved 20-30 feet to another perch. The ovenbird did not follow, at that point.)
Barred owl

Ruby throated hummingbird
Wood thrush (heard)

Had another ovenbird, this time joining two Carolina wrens and two cardinals mobbing an unknown critter.
Learned today that if you re in sunshine and hear thunder, you can get rained on in seconds after the sun disappears.
