I led a walk today for Western Cuyahoga Audubon Society at the Bath Nature Preserve, northwest of Akron in Bath Township,Summit County. Before we got rained out, we had some decent birds. True highlight was a Virginia Rail with 2 chicks. A few years ago, the preserve did some work on the North Fork of Yellow Creek that runs through it. They worked at making the creek more natural....added meanders, added a flood plain area. This has made a nice wetlands area in and around the area they call the Garden Bowl. This is where the rails were. Last year , a Sandhill Crane was seen in this area. A spot worth watching.
Highlights from today:
Virginia Rail
Bobolinks
Eastern Meadowlarks
Eastern Bluebirds
Great Crested Flycatcher
Willow Flycatcher
Cedar Waxwings
Green Heron
Gray Catbirds
Brown Thrasher
Tree Swallows
Vesper Sparrows
Field Sparrows
Sandy Brown
