I returned to Wildwood State Park on the east side of Cleveland today.  I didn't get there until 12:15pm and left at 4pm.  I found birds in different places today as the winds were strong and it was colder today except when it warmed up for a short time.  I found some birds deep in woods further up west of bridge.  As afternoon passed there were warblers south of bathhouse high up and in trees planted just east of road south of bridge but I spent most of the time in the larger opening in the woods further south (east of silver maples) just south of several telephone polls on the ground.  You could walk in there are go to the south side by going through the silver maple area to the trees, bushes and thickets and vines and walk back in from the woods (totally off path) and watch warblers for over 2-1/2 hrs. It didn't rain til after 3:30 so I was lucky.  I didn't go down by the creek today because of the warblers in the woods.  Here are my
