I was along the lake in Painesville Township this morning doing some
surveys.  There was a great movement of birds.  The best birds were a pair
of sandhill cranes flying to the east, a Louisiana waterthrush, and 200+
golden-crowned kinglets.  There were good numbers of other birds and a
decent hawk flight.  Here are some of the highlights of the morning:
