Spent some time Saturday and this morning at the Ira Beaver Marsh in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Came across a few active nests. The nest shots are not the greatest quality but they are interesting anyhow. I did include my favorite shot of the female Orchard Oriole yesterday, she was an easier shot.
