I have not seen other reports so thought I should post.  It was 32 and 
frost at 7:30 AM.  Not much song until it warmed to about 55 by 11 AM.  
Yellow-throated vireos, lots of gnatcatchers, ruby and golden-crowned 
kinglets, yellow-throated warblers and Louisian Waterthrushes are on 
territory, also a few hooded warblers singing, pine, yellow-rumped, B&W, 
Redstart and black-throated green are around.  The most intereresting 
warbler was a prairie wrabler up on the ridge of forest road 2 where the 
north side valley is burned and recovering I wondered if it would be good 
prairie warbler habitat some day and next thing a prairie warbler song was 
loud and clear. It was a gorgeous sight. Red-headed woodpeckers are 
everywhere especially near the edges of burn areas with standing deadwood.  
I did not pick these up last spring at Shawnee.  Sunday makes the second 
time in April that I have picked up all 7 Ohio woodpecker species in one 
day. I think I will forgo Magee this weekend and head back south again.
