Do you have a favorite nature moment? Every winter some people are lucky enough Something you’ve witnessed and perhaps caught to see coyotes using Lake Erie as a frozen on camera? Have you ever been face to face with highway. Now that we're into spring, coyotes are a wild otter, muskrat, or swan? Nature busy raising their young. Cleveland Metroparks enthusiast Chris Parker has, and not by accident. Wildlife Ecologist Jon Cepek will describe the ecology and behavior of the Eastern Coyote, Canis latrans, as well as their interactions with humans and pets using information based on Cleveland Metroparks research and national studies. Jon will answer questions about coyotes to help us understand the facts and correct the fiction about the highly adaptable coyote. Prior to working for Cleveland Metroparks, Jon was the District Supervisor for USDA Wildlife Services and a Wildlife Biologist for the National Wildlife Research Center. Jon’s current position North American River Otter Lontra canadensis is a mix of research and management and Photo by Chris Parker focuses on human-wildlife related issues including deer, coyotes, and wildlife diseases.

Every fourth Sunday of the month, we’ll meet at the entrance gate to the Utility Pipeline Access Road, an otherwise restricted area, by the intersection of Woodridge Lane and Forest Road in Mentor Headlands at 8:00 a.m. This will be a closed program with group birding together, not the open-house style that’s offered by the Marsh Nature Center staff on the second Saturday morning of each month. The gate will be closed behind us as we begin our IBA walk. Northern Harrier, formerly Once we finish birding the pipeline road, we’ll explore the other known as the Marsh Hawk path that leads to the interior of the Marsh, the Wake Robin Trail Circus hudsonius boardwalk. Parking is available along the south side of Woodridge Ln. Photo by Nan Patrick or in the lot at 8936 Woodridge at the trailhead of Wake Robin. Lake County has an easement on the pipeline path, which is only accessible by a permit or when attending a Nature Center program with a naturalist. Dogs are not allowed in any State Nature Preserve. Both Beaty Landing and the Mentor Marsh are within the Grand River – Lower Watershed IBA. Help us document what birds have returned to the Marsh to nest or rest during a migration stopover and which species are still arriving thanks to the ongoing restoration efforts by the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.

  • Atlas Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Atlas Methodology The primary goal of the Ohio Breeding Bird Atlas Project was to document the status and distribution of all birds breeding in Ohio between 1982 and 1987. Additional objectives of this project included providing more accurate information on the distri- bution and nesting occurrences of Ohio’s rare and endangered breeding birds; identifying significant habitats supporting rare or unusual species which could become the focus of preservation efforts; providing baseline data against which future changes in the status and distribution of Ohio’s breeding birds can be measured; providing baseline data for the development of environmental impact statements; involving the birders of Ohio in a cooperative effort of scientific value and heightening their awareness of the state’s summer birdlife. This Atlas represents the work of hundreds of birders throughout Ohio who expended over 30,000 hours between 1982 and 1987 collecting data on the distribution of breeding birds in the state. Over 95% of this data was collected between 1983 and 1987 with 1982 serving as a pilot year for the Atlas Project. In order to fully understand and interpret this data, it is necessary to have some understanding of the goals and mechanics of breeding bird atlas projects. Data Collection: Priority Blocks and Special Areas The basis of any atlas project is a grid system whereby the geographical area to be surveyed is divided into a series of smaller sub–units (usually squares or rectangles called blocks). In Ohio, as in a majority of other states conducting breeding bird atlases, the grid system employed is based on the 7.5 minute topographic map system.

Late in 1998, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) produced a succinct planning document for outdoor recreation in Ohio titled Strategic Plan for Recreation Opportunities. Input was gathered for this plan from numerous public and private agencies and through 19 public forums and five focus groups, held statewide. Based on this statewide input from the citizens of Ohio, ODNR identified five goals in the Strategic Plan for Recreation Opportunities. These goals were set for ODNR as a whole, with a primary focus on those Divisions within ODNR that have a recreation based mission.
