Today I went back to Wildwood State Park on the east side of Cleveland.  No unusual sparrows were seen.  Also a very knowledgeable and well respected birder advised me that my Lark Sparrow that I found yesterday was not a juvenile as I reported but was "darn near if not a full adult bird".  I was at Wildwood today from 9:40 to 1pm and then 5 to 6pm.  Most birds dissapeared by noon and at 5pm could only find Wilsons & Magnolias.  I only found six warbler species today and I did get there late.  But there was a major fallout of Wilson's Warblers in the area.  Most warblers I saw from the bathhouse down to the trees west of grassy knoll near bridge were Wilson's Warblers or Magnolia Warblers.  Elsewhere in the park I saw the same species.  Here are my highlights:

Empidonax Flycatchers - 8+  (Least - 2) especially in the field north of library - many had the whet or whit call
Red-eyed Vireo 2
Veery 1
Swainson's Thrush 1

Warblers:
Nashville 1
Magnolia 10-12
Bay-breasted 2
American Redstart 5
Common Yellowthroat 1
Wilson's  - at least 20

Green Herons 2
Black-crowned Night-Heron 1 (juvenile but getting more black on head)
