This Brant was discovered by Trena Puckett last week, a first for Paulding County.

I didn't expect the bird to be so close to the road for such a good view!

LaFayette's BIG "O" line meets North Paulding's "D".....the aftermath!

The river ought to be renamed in honor of something or someone more relevant to the river's environmental and cultural context than Governor Edward Tiffin, but I don't see anybody making it a priority to build a popular movement to rename it.

-----------------------

In German Township in Fulton County, Ohio, on November 2nd, 2024, was the Tiffin River as viewed from the north side of a bridge on the Wabash Cannonball Trail, concurrently a segment of the North Country National Scenic Trail, between U.S. Route 20A and Ohio State Route 66. A bridge on U.S. Route 20A is visible in the distance.

The Tiffin River flows to the Maumee River, which flows to Lake Erie, and so on over Niagara Falls &c &c.

Based on satellite imagery and pages 48-49 of this report from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, I suspect that this segment of the river was relocated to bypass a meander in the late 19th or early 20th century.
