THE BIGGEST WEEK IN AMERICAN BIRDING – May 4 - 13, 2018 Sandusky County is in the midst of the Migration Highway, which gives us the opportunity to see many species of birds. We also have the second largest concentration of nesting Bald Eagles in the State of Ohio.

June

Great birding spots include Pickerel Creek Wildlife Area, Blue Heron Reserve, White Star Park, Wolf Creek Park, Creek Bend Farm and other parks in the county.

Singing begins to wane; nesters are busy nestling. The first southbound sandpipers and plovers appear.

January

Midwinter brings small visitors from the north. They find shelter in meadows, woodlands and marshes. You can find a variety of waterfowl wherever there is an opening in the river, bay or lake ice.

February

The moderate temperatures in the last half of the month bring the first robins, killdeer, woodcocks and blackbirds.

March

After the frozen marshes begin to thaw, the flights of migrating waterfowl begin. Early flights of pintails, mallards, tundra, swans, black ducks and many others follow the freeze line.

April

Spring migration increases in intensity, bringing over 300 species of birds to the area. A large number of raptors, the first waves of shorebirds and a wide variety of songbirds appear.

Nestling season begins. Each bird finds its favorite habitat (field, thicket, tree-top, marsh). Birding is at its best as the last of the shorebirds are heading north.

July

August

The height of migration from south-bound shorebirds takes place on mudflats or marshes of any kind.

September

The warblers return in large numbers in the fall. However, they’re quieter and duller in color.

October

Indians call this the “Month of sparrows” – in weed patches everywhere. A few you might see are the white-throated sparrow, swamp sparrow and the fox sparrow.

November

Migrant songbirds have mostly cleared out. Huge flocks of Bonaparte’s gulls and red-breasted mergansers invade. Marshes can be thick with waterfowl.

December

Winter sets in and shorter days sometimes bring boreal songbirds.

May

Warbler-mania strikes! Many species of these colorful songbirds come to the area to rest and refuel before continuing their journey.

the structure is no longer used as a jail but houses the offices of the Sandusky County Commissioners and staff. When constructed, the building was unique to its time in design. President Rutherford B. Hayes, an advocate of prison reform who often spoke of the disgraceful jails of the time, heavily infuenced the design. Hayes believed that having the sheriff’s home and living quarters in the front with the prisoners’ jail cells in the back would allow inmates that often came from broken, non-functional homes an opportunity to see normal family structure and interaction. He also believed that jails where all the inmates were kept together regardless of offence were “Schools of Crime”. Because of this, he made sure there was absolute separation of prisoners to cut off all contaminating influences. Over the years, the facility was no longer a viable solution to housing prisoners in Sandusky County and a new jail was built north of Fremont on Countryside Drive and is still in use today.
