29 April 2024 Birds and Wildflowers at Mentor Lagoons

Mentor Lagoons is a haven for great blue herons when they are summering in the north. The beautiful creatures can frequently be seen fishing in the channel.

Red-winged blackbirds were making their familiar call while they perched on trees along the edge of the shore.
