    Magee Marsh

    as some might recall I've become addicted to photographing birds and this past Friday I visited Magee Marsh near Toledo, the warbler Capitol of USA




    This place is incredible because the birds are migrating north to their breeding grounds in Canada, the last chance to fatten up before flying across Lake Erie is here
    Enough chatter, more pictures !
