Hi Folks -

A morning visit to Station Road trailhead in Brecksville Reservation
(Cleveland Metroparks) turned up a nice assortment of warblers, vireos, and
other goodies. Highlights included Cerulean, Prothonotary, and
Yellow-throated Warblers back on territories, plus a nice count of
Yellow-throated Vireos (6) pairing up. Please NOTE that you cannot walk the
railroad south, as a pair of nesting Bald Eagles has taken residence in the
Great Blue Heron rookery. The majority of the birds were seen just across
the bridge around the canal and flooded woods.

Highlights:
(7 sp. of warblers)

Warbling Vireo - 2
Yellow-throated Vireo - 6
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher – 18
Yellow Warbler – 8
Nashville Warbler – 2
Cerulean Warbler – 1
Yellow-rumped Warbler – 1
Yellow-throated Warbler - 3 (1 on the ground collecting nesting material)
Prothonotary Warbler – 1
Northern Waterthrush – 1
Baltimore Oriole - 2

Cheers
Jen
