On the Boardwalk
The Mudflats Boardwalk is located on Hoover Reservoir in the city of Galena, OH, northeast of Columbus. It is a premier birding site, especially for migrating shore birds such as egrets, cormorants, and blue herons. Bald eagles have occasionally been spotted. A pair of breeding osprey have made one of the platforms constructed by volunteers their nesting home. My sister and I visited the site in late summer two years ago. We saw several types of herons, ducks, gulls, and other birds and took nearly 70 pictures.
