Sharon and I were walking all around in the Wetland Mitigation impoundment 
this am.



We found two immature birds and Two Adult Redheaded Woodpeckers. Very cool.



I have a key provided by the Cuyahoga County Engineers who constructed this 
wetland abatement that will be given to the Cleveland Metro Parks and open 
to the public in time. When I do not know.



I have been moving native wildflower’s from along the path of the newly 
constructed Crocker/Sterns extension, and relocating them into the 
enclosure.





I am on collection permits so not to worry.



I have for several years been allowed with Cleveland Metro Parks permission 
prior to the construction of said road moved plants out of the path of the 
road, started a native plant nursery using our yard and a nursery and seed 
producer. I put several hundred Trillium seeds into the impoundment. The 
goal is to make sections of this impoundment as good or better than the 
section of Bradley woods that was destroyed by the road. Native plant 
speaking.



The impoundment is surrounded by a 9 foot fence. It is/can be reached by 
parking in the first parking lot in Bradley Woods on your right. Take the 
trail just to the left of the Picnic pavilion. Take that tail north and you 
will run right into the impoundment. Or anotehr tail will lead to the old 
sandstone quarries that constructed the buildings of Baldwin Walace.





Or find Elmhurst off of Lorain Road. Take Elmhurst to Whitehaven (I did not 
name the street) Take Whitehaven to the stop sign and then a left on 
Broxbourn.



Note the last house on the right is "Rocky's House" and he likes his 
privacy, do not under any condition pull into his driveway or you be visited 
by the North Olmsted Police, oh "Rocky" how many times did you call the 
police on me.



Or just maybe if you would like a tour of the impoundment send me a private 
reply.
