I had to resend this as it was rejected the first time (not in plain text)
I went to Wildwood Park on the east side of Cleveland (Lakeshore Blvd & E. 174th) late this afternoon from 5:20 to 7:10. I didn't go there Monday and Tuesday I didn't see as much as seen previously except the Thrashers were calling. The Black-crowned Night-Herons seen by others a few weeks ago that I just found this weekend were there and the Green Heron Tuesday was new for me. So today the first meaningful bird I saw as I walked up the bridge from the marina towards past the grassy knoll leading to the log and path into the woods was a male SCARLET TANAGER on the ground. Later I heard a Yellow Warbler down by the creek and almost didn't think anything about it because I hadn't heard one this year. Only because I was looking for the Yellow Warbler did I find additional warblers across Euclid Creek high up in tall trees that I normally don't even look up at. I did see the Yellow Warbler finally. I spent over 30 minutes looking up at the tree and
that is where most of the warblers were. Here are my few highlights for today:
Green Heron 1 (new 4/22 for me)
Black-crowned Night-Herons 3 (2 adults - 1 immature)
Barn Swallows - lots
B. Creeper 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglets 3, Hermit Thrush - only found 1 today
Nashville Warbler 2 (first I have seen)
Yellow Warbler 1 (first I have seen)
Yellow-rumped 5-6
Pine Warbler 1 (at least 1)
SCARLET TANAGER 1 m (first I have seen)
White-throated Sparrow 2
I have pictures of my recent and todays sightings on this link:
