Nice Audubon/Metroparks walk this morning at Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve.
Not an enormous number of birds (other than Robins, Juncos, and
Red-winged Blackbirds), but a nice variety, including quite a number of
Flickers, a couple of Yellow-rumped Warblers (unfortunately only seen by
me), Fox Sparrow, Hermit Thrush, a couple of Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, a
Peregrine Falcon, a Northern Mockingbird, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, and a
nice variety of sparrows.
