Spend part of the morning and again this evening at Lake Erie Bluffs a Lake Metropark.  Saw Rusty Blackbirds on both occasions (2 different flocks).  The morning flock had 15-20 birds in it and the evening flock (in another part ofthe park) had 30-50.  I went back in the evening and saw about 15-20 Woodcocks and heard over double that - most I have ever encountered.  At no point in a field at either entrance could I not hear multiple birds.  To round things out I had 2 Tundra Swans fly over, Redtailed Hawks, tons of Robins and long staying Northern Shrike.
