This morning I saw an osprey over the Cuyahoga River near the wetlands. It circled and called for a short time. Very beautiful.

I also heard a Sora and a Virginia Rail in the wetlands. But, every time I'd turn on my camera to try to record it with a video, the birds would stop calling. Birds...Grrr...

There was also a pied-billed grebe fishing in the open water at the marsh and a brown thrasher singing farther south where the gravel road meets the railroad tracks. The thrasher was back in the woods to the west of the road. 

As I crossed the foot bridge over the Cuyahoga River near the train station, I saw two chickadees clearing out a cavity on a tree overhanging the river on the west bank just north of the bridge.
