I was at our Hogback Ridge Park in Madison Township, Lake County today and
had a singing yellow-throated warbler.  I also had an osprey flying along
the Grand River.

This evening at my house in North Perry there was a good movement of gulls
flying west along the lakeshore.  It was a steady stream with about 1/3 of
the birds being herring gulls and the remainder being ring-billed.  There
was also a single glaucous, 2 lesser and 6 great black-backed gulls.  There
were a few Bonaparte's moving along the lake also.  I didn't see anything
with them.  I did see three Caspian terns also.

This has been an amazing March.  I also had four species of dragonflies and
damselflies.  There were lots of green darners and a springtime darner.  I
also had 70+ fragile forktails and 6 eastern forktails.  Both forktails and
the springtime darner are about a month early.  I posted some photos of them
on rarebird.org.  I also had 6 species of butterflies including a tiger
swallowtail.  Lots of early wildflowers also.
