    Cheer on the world-famous buzzards as they return back to Cleveland Metroparks!


    The 56th Annual �Return of the Buzzards� is on Friday, March 15 with the �buzzard watch� starting at 7 a.m. at the Buzzard Roost in Hinckley Reservation.


    Join Cleveland Metroparks newly-anointed �Official Buzzard Spotter� Sharon Hosko to welcome these remarkable birds back to Greater Cleveland.  Visitors from far and wide, armed with binoculars, cameras and, most importantly, a sense of humor, flock to the Buzzard Roost in Hinckley Reservation to await the official spotting of the season's first buzzard (turkey vulture) - a sure sign of spring's return, as well!  While everyone is quite confident of the day of the first spotting, the exact time depends on the birds themselves.


    Visitors are also invited to celebrate the turkey vultures' return at the Buzzard Sunday! event on Sunday,


    March 17 at Hinckley Reservation's Buzzard Roost from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.  The free event features naturalist-led hikes, live birds of prey programs, musical entertainment, puppet shows, a buzzard scoreboard, displays and exhibits, Buzzard Bingo games for kids, bus tours of Hinckley Reservation, EarthWords Nature Shop with unique buzzard-related merchandise, refreshments, a beer garden, and more! 


    The Buzzard Roost is located at the corner of State Road and West Drive in Hinckley Reservation in Hinckley Township.


    For more information on Cleveland Metroparks buzzard-related activities, call 440-526-1012,  216-635-3200 or visit clevelandmetroparks.com.


    Everyone is invited to celebrate the annual return of the buzzards back to Hinckley.  But, just remember - �no one spots a buzzard �til the �Official Buzzard Spotter' spots one first.�


    Join the fun and welcome the buzzards, Cleveland's winged harbingers of spring, back to Hinckley Reservation of Cleveland Metroparks - part of your life, naturally!
