From Lorain & Cuyahoga Counties: The overnight southerly winds have produced an influx of Sparrows (fox, Savannah, field, song, etc) this morning along our Lakefront. Flocks of flickers, sapsuckers and Blackbirds are also moving as well as others. Migration is stirring!!  Best of birding, wherever that takes you,
