I don't know if anyone will be interested but a Garganey was found just northwest of Cincinnati on Saturday and is still present today as of a few minutes ago. Virginia and I are heading to Magee Marsh Tuesday morning and if the bird stays around we definitely are going to try and see it. The report is on Ohio Birds and here is a link to the Fernald Preserve located in northwestern Hamilton County where the bird is being seen: http://www.ohiobirds.org/birdingsites/showsite.php?Site_ID3 If anyone from Tennessee goes to see it tomorrow, please post to TN-Bird. This is a bird we have often wanted to see but never imagined one would be this close to our area. From the Ohio Birds reports it apparently is a mature male and must be beautiful.
