The following birds were among those I found at CWRU's Squire Valleevue Farm in eastern Cuyahoga County this morning:

Ring-necked Ducks (2 males, 2 females on one of the research ponds)
Tree Swallows (at least 4 at the research ponds)
Golden-crowned Kinglets
Hermit Thrush (1)
Eastern Towhee (1 singing male)
Chipping Sparrows (2)
Eastern Meadowlarks (2)

At least one Junco is consistently singing in the hemlock ravine where Juncos have nested in previous years.  The first Phoebes returned a week and a half ago and Killdeer have been present for at least a week.
