FROM ADA ICON - On Tuesday morning, The Icon, heading east on Lima Avenue near Ohio Northern University, spotted a deer family traveling from the south side of the avenue to the north side and toward the woods on campus.
In addition to the deer, a flock of Canada geese stood ready to fend off anyone who came too close.
After stopping to watch, the Icon took the following photos of the deer crossing the street.
We've enhanced some of the photos to viewers can see the deer outlines - because we were shooting into the sun.
The next time you stop in The Cask Room, Main Street, Ada, tell Jonah Agner that the Icon sent you.
The Icon knew that our story on Jonah Agner's vegetarian menu at The Cask Room, Ada, would be a big hit.
We underestimated how big.
Below is a screen shot of the Icon's Facebook announcement of the story. Check the number of people it reached: 18,398. In addition, the story had 72 shares and 31 comments.
Those yellow lines on Bluffton streets appears again - as they do each summer. The Allen County Engineers paint the streets for the village. The Icon caught the parade on West Street.
Bluffton's big bird may not have a Bluffton Sportsmen's Club fishing license, but who's going to stop it from fishing?
The Icon spotted the great blue heron again this week, this time on the west side of the Spring Street bridge over the Riley - sort of an idyllic view.
The photo below shows an close up of the same photo.
