The end of winter is almost in sight! This was my first trail walk in Chagrin River Park for more than a week, and I am happy overjoyed to say that it actually felt like spring. There were several signs of spring to celebrate: my first bluebird of the season; stormy-looking skies, an unidentified bird wading in the bog, and three happy walkers (plus Gulliver) enjoying the 70 degree temperature. Click on a picture and enjoy a virtual walk in the park.

SEEN ALONG THE TRAIL 
I believe your unidentified bird is a song sparrow.

Thanks, Roz. I was surprised to see a sparrow-type bird wading in the bog.

Thanks, Kathy. It was eager to pose, although most likely it was the bark butter bits that led to the many return visits.

Thanks, Kathy. That nuthatch really wanted to be a blog star!

Mystery bird is likely a female red winged blackbird.

I have a hard time identifying them and some of the sparrows as well.
