Birds of Magee Marsh

The Magee Marsh area is an annual mecca for many 3RBC enthusiasts. Some birders find new birds for their life lists just a few feet away from their eyes. But experienced birders always thrill at new close-up sightings of species they have seen many times before.
Here is a gallery of fine bird portraits taken at Magee Marsh and other birding hot spots in northwestern Ohio during May 2018. The pictures were taken by (in alphabetical order) Mike Fialkovich, Amanda Haney, Michelle Kienholz, Tom Moeller, Rick Nirschl, Claire Staples, and David Yeany II.
The 20 bird photos below are arranged taxonomically (ABA May 2018) with the warblers displayed first followed by other birds in the area.
Enjoy!
