Oak Harbor, Ohio, USA, May 2025 \u2014 It is hard to say whether there were more Tree Swallows or more Warbling Vireos at Magee this Biggest Week in American Birding. The only bird that might have outnumbered both is the Red-winged Blackbird. \ud83d\ude42 It would have been close though. The Swallows were exploring any likely nesting cavity, and several pairs were already on the nest. Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at 600mm equivalent.
