I went to Villa Angela and Wildwood State Parks on the east side of Cleveland today from 1:15 to 3:15pm.  I ran into Peter U (great photographer) who I think was leaving but he joined me as we searched for any birds.  I didn't find as many birds as Saturday or Friday as it was very windy, cloudy (SSW 16-18 mph) in most of the park and late.  Yesterday there were still a few Yellow-rumped Warblers.  But in an extended effort to find anything we finally came upon two Fox Sparrows on the south side of the woods in Wildwood up from the creek in the brush/ bushes/thickets in with some White-throated Sparrows.  I had not seen any since 11/6.  They were making sounds similar to the White-throated Sparrows and stayed around the area despite our creeping around them.  Here are a few birds seen today and yesterday:
 
American Black Ducks 2
Bufflehead 5 today (4 yesterday)
Horned Grebes - at least 10 in marina today
Black-crowned Night-Heron 1 juvenile (yesterday in VA woods, today west side of creek)
Bald Eagle 1 flying west 11/12   
Bonaparte's Gulls - few in marina today
Belted Kingfisher  2 today
Winter Wren 1 (11/12) WW
Carolina Wren 1 (today up from creek - flew to island) WW
Golden-crowned Kinglets - only few today
Yellow-rumped Warblers 5 (11/12 only 4-VA, 1WW)
Fox Sparrows 2 today WW
White-throated Sparrows  ~ 10 today in WW
Blue Jays - very abundant
 
Question Mark Butterfly 1 seen in Wildwood 11/12
