I was able to do two of my favorite things today: birding and biking on the Maple Highlands Trail in Geauga County. Highlights for me were 2 high-soaring bald eagles near East Branch Reservoir, dozens of robins working the areas adjacent to the trail, and hearing a flicker calling. Reminded me of my son, who as a youngster called flickers "apes in the woods"!
