Norm Erthal, Glenn Walbek, Loch Kirkpatrick and I found a few skeeters and about a half ton of Wilson's Warblers at the inlet canal at Prewitt. In addition to that thousand pounds were a Black-throated Gray Warbler, Black-and-white Warbler, Townsend's, and the highlight bird, a juvenile Mississippi Kite that first flew over the tree-tops, then cooperated by perching at the top of a snag for prolonged study and photos. The Kite, unusual in Washco, was a county bird for each of us, as was the BTGW. At Prewitt Reservoir itself were 3 Common Terns, a Great Egret and a lone Sanderling, but virually no other shorebirds. Akron Golf Course pond and Last Chance oasis were devoid of interest.
