I went to Old Field this morning in South Chagrin. I saw an adult bald eagle fly up the Chagrin River as I neared the north edge of the field and entered the evergreens (about 8:35 am). The titmice were really singing up a storm in this area. Walking back south there was one gold-crowned kinglet working the low branches on a mostly-dead cedar near the trail leading back to the parking area. I was right next to the tree when I spotted the bird. I had to step back to use my binoculars on it. There were a number of birds to the south near the Chagrin Road parking lot where the trail splits to go under the bridge or towards the lot. Morning doves, titmice, chickadees, two blue jays, a male cardinal, four juncos, a hairy woodpecker and a red-bellied woodpecker. There must be something really good in this area. (I left my hiking boots in my car last night. Bad idea. I really got a jolt when I put them on at the park! Brrr! Don't do that!) ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
