The Cicada strewn roads of Lorain County were full of birds during this mornings bike ride. I had 35 species including 5 kinds of flycatchers, 5 sparrow species and a highlight of 4 Dickcissels on Island Rd. Two of them were south of the Island and Capel Rd. intersection near the ditch, and the other two were at that intersection. One was perched on a wire and calling continuously.
