I went to Villa Angela and Wildwood State Parks on the east side of Cleveland on Lake Erie today from 10:00am to 12:15pm. I ran into Mark Anderson near the end of the morning walk who relocated the White-crowned Sparrow that has been at Villa Angela since 2/13. It now looks like an adult with white stripped head. I didn't see much new, Mark had to leave and I left. I went to Sims Park and Euclid Park and then came back from 2:20pm to 4:20pm. I hadn't planned on coming back but with the winds and temperature I thought I better check it out again. In afternoon saw BALTIMORE ORIOLE, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, two Pine Warblers and an OVENBIRD.
