Hi,
Yesterday's strong SW winds brought a good crow migration near the SW end of Lake Erie near Magee Marsh State Wildlife Area and Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge to start me to thinking of spring. 
Also the Horned Larks are beginning their spring dances so hopefully all of you are out there helping with the Ohio Breeding Bird Atlas II to get those early breeding species!

Enjoy the early signs of Spring!
