Western Cuyahoga Audubon Society Waterfowl were abundant in icy Lake Erie on this mild day at East 72nd Street. White-winged Crossbills prompted a side trip to Lake View Cemetery. We were thrilled to see these boreal acrobats dismantle pine cones by the Garfield Monument. 18 birders today at East 72nd street. People showed up a little later, so not all were in the picture. At East 72nd Street: 21 species Canada Goose Gadwall American Wigeon American Black Duck Mallard Canvasback Redhead Ring-Necked Duck Greater Scaup Lesser Scaup Hooded Merganser American Coot Ring-Billed Gull Herring Gull Iceland Gull Glaucous Gull Great Black Backed Gull Red-tailed Hawk Peregrine Falcon Rock Pigeon Snow Bunting House Sparrow Side trip to Lake View Cemetery in search of White-winged Crossbills* *Yes, we did see them! 13 species Red-tailed Hawk Red-bellied Woodpecker Yellow-bellied Sapsucker Downy Woodpecker Blue Jay Black-capped Chickadee White-breasted Nuthatch American Robin European Starling Dark-eyed Junco Northern Cardinal WHITE WINGED CROSSBILLS American Goldfinch
