At about 10:00 a.m. Today, I observed a group of about 70 swifts actively feeding close to the ground in the property of the NE Ohio Regional Sewer District's Westerly Plant, located on Canal Road just north of Warner Road in Cuyahoga Heights, about 4 miles from downtown Cleveland. Seems late for swifts this far north?
