Field Trip to E. 72nd and Wendy Park
Saturday, January 18, 2014
Leader: Jen Brumfield
Jen Brumfield led thirty-five birders from WCAS, Kirtland Bird Club
and the Northeast Ohio Young Birders in sunny, 12-degree deep-freeze
along the Cleveland Lakefront. A great opportunity to bird together,
but doubtful that we will recognize each other without all of the
hoods and mufflers! Long-tailed Ducks mingled with Mallards at the
East 72nd Street warm-water outflow.
A Peregrine Falcon perched on a window ledge on the power
plant. Wendy Park had Glaucous and Iceland Gulls. Thanks to Craig
Caldwell and Liz McQuaid for sharing their bird lists.
