I spent several hours this afternoon at Killbuck Marsh and saw 70 species. The highlights include:

Palm Warbler-several in the Clark/Valley Rd. area.
Yellow Warbler-several....everywhere really. :)
Yellow-rumped Warblers- seen pretty much where there were trees. Over 2 dozen (possibly close to 3 dozen) different birds counted all over the wildlife area.
Red-headed Woodpecker- Valley Rd.
Sandhill Cranes- making a lot of noise on Valley Road. :)
Wood Ducks- Willow Road, Clark Road/Valley Road area
Blue-winged Teals were numerous throughout the area
Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs along Prairie Lane.
House Wrens and Gray Catbirds singing along trail at Clark/Valley Rd.
Redheads and Ring-necked Ducks on Willow Road.
FOY Great Crested Flycatcher along Valley Road
American Bittern seen in marsh at the Clark/Valley Road trail entrance. I have photos available of the bird. Watched for 15 minutes as he swayed side to side. Possibly another Bittern out there, but unsure.
Green Heron, also seen in same area as Bittern later in the afternoon.
