I was at Villa Angela/Wildwood SP in Cleveland today from 10:15am til after 3:30pm. It was sunny 52-57 deg with winds WSW to W (8-10mph) and there was bird activity everywhere today, and some different sparrows and many Phoebes. Here is some of what I saw today: Black-crowned Night-Heron 1 adult Bald Eagles 2 (adult & juvenile) Cooper's Hawk 1 Bonaparte's Gulls 150+ far out Eastern Phoebe 5 (VA 4, WW 1) Blue-headed Vireo 1 (VA)in birch woods then the field near library Red-breasted Nuthatch 2 (VA 1, WW 1) Brown Creepers 4 Carolina Wren 1 Winter Wren 12 Golden-crowned Kinglets 55+ Ruby-crowned Kinglets 12 (most in WW along Euclid Creek) Hermit Thrush ~ 17 Brown Thrasher 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 (WW) Eastern Towhee 3 (2F, 1M) Field Sparrow 2 Fox Sparrow 2 (1VA, 1WW below bridge near mudflat) Song Sparrow ~ 18 Lincoln Sparrow 1 Swamp Sparrow 2 White-throated Sparrows 80-90 White-crowned Sparrows 9 Dark-eyed Junco ~ 47 (35+ were at the library next door to Villa Angela) Red-winged Blackbird 1 f American Goldfinch 10 The Blue-headed Vireo was first seen in birch woods near field then moved to field (north of library in Villa Angela) then started behaving more like the Phoebes landing in grass then flew up to bushes and trees to eat bugs).
