WELCOME TO BIRDING THE CRANE CREEK -
MAGEE REGION OF NORTHWEST OHIO 

The Lake Erie shoreline in northwestern Ohio is widely recognized as one of the best birding areas in North America.  Birders from all over the continent come here in May to see concentrations of warblers and other migratory songbirds.  Actually, this region offers excellent birding all year, especially during the migration seasons from late February to early June and from July through November.  

These birding pages are offered as a public service of the Black Swamp Bird Observatory to help birders make the most of their visits to our home area.  We are endlessly fascinated by the exciting birdlife, the spectacle of migration, and the beauty of the natural habitats in this region, and we are eager to share these treasures with anyone who is willing to appreciate them.
