Bird Watching Around Central Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

Bird watching may seem like a relatively tame activity, but it's actually beneficial for your mental and physical health. Walking is good for your cardiovascular system, while experts say bird watching reduces stress and anxiety while improving cognitive skills.

Another positive aspect of bird watching? It costs nothing to participate when you visit these fascinating sites around Columbus and Central Ohio.

Grange Insurance Audubon Center

505 W. Whittier St., Columbus, OH 43215

Named for the iconic ornithologist and painter, Grange Insurance Audubon Center is designed to show how conservation efforts enable nature to thrive in urban areas. This lush bird sanctuary stands on a former industrial site in downtown Columbus, right on the banks of the Scioto River. Kids can check out Adventure and Discovery Backpacks for curbside pickup that contain materials to help them get the most out of your visit. Check the website for information about current programs. The Scioto Audubon Park is open daily from 6:30 a.m. - 8 p.m.

Blendon Woods Metro Park

4265 E. Dublin Granville Rd., Columbus, OH 43081

Where do turkeys go when it's not Thanksgiving? Chances are good you'll see some of them foraging for food at Blendon Woods Metro Park. The 653-acre grounds are also home to a variety of songbirds as well as Thoreau Lake, site of the Walden Waterfowl Refuge. Get a great view from the spotting scopes atop two elevated observation platforms. Stream-cut ravines and open fields provide a picturesque backdrop for a day of bird watching. Park hours are 6:30 a.m. - 8 p.m. seven days a week.

Glen Echo Park

510 Cliffside Dr., Columbus, OH 43202

Running from Fourth St. to Indianola Ave., the ravine setting of Glen Echo Park is so secluded that many Columbus residents are surprised to learn about it. The dog-friendly park offers a serene oasis that feels miles away from the traffic and activity above, making it a popular spot for local bird watchers. Don't miss the tunnel with colorful bird figures painted on the walls, which is a favorite attraction for park visitors. Glen Echo Park is open daily from 6 a.m. - 9 p.m.

Pickerington Ponds Metro Park

7680 Wright Rd., Canal Winchester, OH 43110

The delightfully alliterative name of Pickerington Ponds Metro Park sounds like something you might find in the fields of England. In reality, this top bird-watching site is just minutes from Columbus. With more than 260 species of waterfowl, shorebirds and land birds spotted on 1,608-acre grounds, you're sure to have a productive day. Keep your eyes peeled for deer, beaver, fox, and other wildlife that also roam the park. Park hours are 6:30 a.m. - 6 p.m. daily.

Highbanks Metro Park

9466 Columbus Pike, Lewis Center, OH 43035

As the name implies, Highbanks Metro Park is noted for its 100-foot-tall shale bluff that looks out over the Olentangy State Scenic River. The 1,200-acre park has several trails in various degrees of difficulty that provide numerous opportunities for bird watching, including eagles, which have been seen at Highbanks. Many of the trails are pet-friendly, so bring Fido along. Highbanks is open 6:30 a.m. - 8 p.m. seven days a week.

Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park

1775 Darby Creek Dr., Galloway, OH 43119

The sprawling 7,000 acres of Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park encompass a variety of different terrains, including forests, prairies, and wetlands. More than 1,600 acres of the land have been restored, with bison inhabiting two enclosed pastures. White Barn Lagoon is a spot favored by many bird watchers. Sightings of nearly 100 species, including peregrine falcons and European starlings, have been reported. A number of the dozen trails are well-suited for family and dog outings. Battelle Darby Creek is open year-round from 6:30 a.m. - 8 p.m.

Hogback Ridge Park

2656 Hogback Rd., Sunbury, OH 43074

On its own, Hogback Ridge Park is a lovely, dog-friendly place to spend a day of bird watching. Winding trails make their way through wooded ravines that are home to wild turkeys, pileated woodpeckers, and many other species. For a real treat, take the Woodland Ridge Trail to the Equestrian Trail to a spot on Alum Creek dubbed "Osprey Overlook." Enjoy breathtaking sights of these stunning birds fishing, feeding their young and interacting with other osprey. Hogback Ridge is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. - 7 p.m., with extended hours until 9 p.m. between March and October.

Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park

352 W. Dodridge St., Columbus, OH 43202

Bird watching is part of higher education at the Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park. The 52-acre facility sits just on the northern edge of the Ohio State University Campus. Faculty and students use the park for research and training on ecosystems, landscapes, and other environmental matters. The park and its greenway trails, paved paths, and observation pavilion are open to the public daily from dawn until dusk.

Hoover Reservoir Park

7701 Sunbury Rd., Westerville, OH 43081

Few things are more exciting for veteran and novice bird watchers alike than a bald eagle sighting. Such occurrences are relatively frequent at Hoover Reservoir Park, a peaceful spot located a mere 20 minutes from Columbus. The Hoover Meadows Bluebird Trail and Hoover Mudflats are well-known bird-watching spots. Mud Hen Marsh, one of several preserves in the area, offers great opportunities to view the marsh's namesake as well as the Northern Cardinal, Eastern Kingbird, and House Finch. Park hours are 7 a.m. - 11 p.m. daily.

Winter Hiking in Northeast Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

The colder temperatures have blown in and turned Northeast Ohio into a winter wonderland. Though it may be a little chilly, the bright sun and blue skies create the perfect conditions for a relaxing hike through one of our many trails. Discover the beauty of Northeast Ohio in the winter with a hike at one of these area trails.

Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park

12440 OH-282, Garrettsville, OH 44231

Where does one go on a hike in the winter? The Devil's Icebox, of course! You'll find this rock formation as well as the Old Maid's Kitchen and Indian Pass within the Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park. There are four unique trails: the Red Trail is a half-mile, the Blue and Yellow Trails are three-quarters of a mile, and the White Trail is one-mile. Since many of these rock formations were made by receding glaciers, we can't think of a better time of the year to explore Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park than in the heart of winter.

Blue Hen Falls

2001 Boston Mills Rd., Brecksville, OH 44141

If you're searching for a wonderful place to hike, there are few outside Cleveland better than the Cuyahoga Valley. Of its many trails, a hike to Blue Hen Falls is one of the best family winter hikes that you can take. This three-mile trek should take about two hours. You'll first follow the Buckeye Trail then head across Boston Mills Road before venturing half-mile downhill to reach Blue Hen Falls. This 15-foot waterfall is quite a sight, especially in the winter, so be sure to bring your camera.

South Chagrin Reservation

37374 Miles Rd., Bentleyville, OH 44022

Explore more of the Buckeye Trail in the South Chagrin Reservation. Located along the Chagrin River, the South Chagrin Reservation is a lovely place for a hike. What we love about this area is that it's full of both natural and manmade wonders. Henry Rock Church, for instance, was carved way back in the 1880s, while Lookout Lodge was constructed in the late 1930s. With opportunities to hike, sled, fish, and explore the natural, historical, and cultural elements of the area, South Chagrin Reservation deserves a spot on your winter hiking itinerary.

Rocky River Reservation

24000 Valley Parkway, North Olmsted, OH 44070

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Bill Trentel (@btrentel)

Bird-watchers and wildlife viewers will enjoy a winter hike through the Rocky River Reservation. A walk to the Berea Falls overlook is a must, as well as a stop with your toboggan at Barrett Sledding Hill. As you wind through the trails throughout the reservation, keep an eye out for Ohio's local wildlife, including the stunning white-tailed deer.

Mill Creek Park

Youngstown, OH 44509

Mill Creek Park is the ultimate destination for outdoor winter fun. It's the largest of all the MetroParks and features 45-miles of trails where you can sled, cross-country ski, and hike. We suggest taking a stroll over by Lake Glacier where you can easily access the East Glacier Trail and Old Tree Trail. If you want a super-quick hike, the Lily Pond Circle at Lily Pond is a better option. Lake Newport offers access to the West Newport Trail, Islands Trail, and West and East Channel trails, while Lake Cohasset provides access to the East and West Cohasset trails. With so many trails to hike, you can spend the entire winter exploring Mill Creek Park.

Munroe Falls Metro Park

521 S. River Rd., Munroe Falls, OH 44262

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Bob Sargent (@thorsargent)

Munroe Falls Metro Park offers two fantastic areas to explore during the winter. The Lake Area features the 2.2-mile Indian Spring Trail, which loops you through a stream, wetlands, and a hill perfect for sledding. The Tallmadge Meadows Area is perfect for cross-country skiing and features two trails. The shorter Meadow Loop Trail is only 0.35-miles and is accessible for wheelchairs, strollers, and canes/walkers. The longer Meadow Trail is two-miles long and gives you a glimpse at wildlife in the meadow.

Deep Lock Quarry Metro Park

5779 Riverview Rd., Peninsula, OH 44264

Grab your camera and get ready to snap photos of amazing vistas along the Quarry Trail in Deep Lock Quarry Metro Park. This 1.4-mile moderate trail isn't too strenuous and will lead you to the Erie & Ohio Canal's deepest lock. As you walk, you'll pass millstones and have the opportunity to spot amazing views of the Cuyahoga River.

Euclid Creek Reservation

850 Euclid Creek Parkway, Cleveland, OH 44121

Though the Euclid Creek Reservation is a popular summertime picnic and exercise spot, it's also a wonderful place for a winter hike. There are four trails leading through the area, ranging from 1.1 to 2.5 miles. Each will take you through diverse landscapes like Bluestone quarries, Euclid Beach, and the Wildwood Marina. If you're searching for a little more fun to add to your hike, grab your sled and ride down the hill at the Kelley Picnic Area.

F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm

1828 Smith Rd., Akron, OH 44313

The F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm invites you to take a hike or enjoy the view this winter. Three basic trails wind through the area. The half-mile Cherry Lane Trail is a loop that leads to an amazing suspension bridge. The Fernwood Loop trail is nearly a mile in length and connects to the Cherry Lane Trail. For a slightly longer walk, the Seneca Trail is a mildly challenging unpaved loop that takes you deep into the forest. When you're finished with your hike, you can warm up at the Seneca deck fireplace.

Cheese Shops Around Cincinnati - Cutler Real Estate

We hate to be cheezy, but we can't wait for January 20th! Why? It's National Cheese Lover's Day! While there's no wrong way to celebrate, we love the idea of planning a complete cheese feast! Gather up all the classics and toss in a few varieties you haven't tried before. 

If you want to take your day to a whole new level, start by visiting some of the best specialty cheese shops in the Cincinnati area. Here are a few of our favorites.

The Rhined

1737 Elm St., Cincinnati, OH 45202

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by The Rhined (@therhined)

Located in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati, The Rhined sells a wide variety of American-made artisan and farmstead cheeses. All of the small-batch cheeses they carry are made by hand and can be cut-to-order in the shop. This is perfect for anyone who wants to sample a variety of cheeses without making a huge investment. 

They also carry everything you need to enjoy your cheese, including olives, nuts, jams, beer, and wine. You're welcome to take your selections home or relax and enjoy a cheese flight with a glass of wine. They offer counter seating in the tiny, intimate shop or outdoor seating in their courtyard.

To minimize contact, they're offering delivery and curbside pickup. They'll also handcraft a delicious cheeseboard for your next gathering.

Are you a true cheese lover? If so, they check out their monthly cheese club box. What a great way to treat yourself all year long! 

JE Gibbs Cheese & Sausage

1801 Elm St. UNIT 28, Cincinnati, OH 45202

Located in the Findlay Market, JE Gibbs Cheese & Sausage has been pleasing their customers since 1922. Back then, they were simply a butter and egg stand. Today, they still carry butter and eggs, but they also have specialty cheeses, sausage, lunchmeat, Amish jams, homemade noodles, natural peanut butter, 20+ kinds of fudge, and more!

The store is still family-run, now in its fifth generation. When you visit, check out the display of tools the family used back in the 1920s, including a butter churn, manual cheese slicer, and thick wood boxes used to transport cheese. You'll feel just like you're taking a step back in time! 

The owners travel to Wisconsin three times a year to restock their assortment of specialty cheeses and fresh cheese curds. While some of it goes straight to the store to sell, much of it is held for aging. They release their aged cheddar cheeses twice a year — around Mother's Day and Christmas. When they do, the supply always sells out fast. Try it once, and you'll quickly understand why this amazing treat is worth waiting for. 

Urban Stead Cheese

3036 Woodburn Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45206

The owners of Urban Stead Cheese see cheese making as a true art form. They make all their cheese on-site and have a full tasting room, viewing windows, and a full bar with beer, wine, and liquor. Here you'll find incredible varieties of cheese, including Street Ched, their traditional English-style clothbound cheddar, Misty River, a Camembert-style cheese, and Quark, a fresh, creamy farmer's cheese. They also have Gouda, fresh cheese curds, and more! 

We recommend visiting the tasting room and ordering a cheese board, cheddar curds, or beer cheese with sourdough pretzels. For the perfect experience, pair your snack with a glass of wine or a tart cherry old fashioned. Don't forget to pick up a baguette and some fresh cheese to take home with you so you can enjoy a second snack later! 

Hyde Park Gourmet Food & Wine

2707 Erie Ave. Cincinnati, OH 45208

Nothing goes together quite like cheese and wine, which is why Hyde Park Gourmet Food & Wine is the perfect place to celebrate National Cheese Lovers Day. In addition to an enormous selection of wines, they also sell yummy sandwiches, fresh bread, cheese, crisp pickles, and more! 

They're open every day for lunch and currently offer delivery and curbside to-go. Next time you find yourself in Cincinnati's historic Hyde Park Square, pay them a visit — you'll be glad you did! 

Share: Cheesebar

6105 Ridge Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45213

The ultimate neighborhood cheese chop, Share: Cheesebar offers a small but curated selection of cheese and charcuterie. The offerings rotate, and all of the cheese can be cut to order. In addition to cheese, they also offer grab-and-go treats, artisan products, and an excellent selection of beer and wine. Their stock changes seasonally, so you can always find something new to enjoy. 

Next time you're hosting dinner or an event, visit Share: Cheesebar for a custom-made cheese or charcuterie board. They're as beautiful as they are delicious and are sure to please your guests!

Ed-Mar Dairy

1034 Walton Nicholson Rd., Walton, KY 41094

Ed-Mar Dairy believes happy cows make great cheese. They provide all of their dairy cows with excellent living conditions and a healthy diet. They also use the state's only robotic milking machine, which allows the cows to choose when they want to be milked. 

Their wide selection of cheeses are made with their farm's fresh milk, which contains no antibiotics or hormones. Once it's turned into cheese, it's aged for 60 days or longer. You can order their delicious cheese online or head over to their farm where you can sample their cheese and honey, buy products, and even schedule a behind-the-scenes farm tour! 

Morsel & Nosh

4183 Hamilton Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45223

One of Cincinnati's most popular delicatessen and specialty grocery stores, Morsel & Nosh is well known for their wide selection of fine cheeses and cured meat. They also carry a variety of provisions from local and regional artisan producers. 

Visit their online store, where you'll find a selection of cheese, meats, produce, and more for delivery or pickup. And if you really want to wow your guests at your next event, order a Mandala Board or Bohemian Board. These stunning meat and cheese boards are meticulously assembled so they look more like a fine work of art than a tray of food. 

Say Cheese!

How do you plan to celebrate National Cheese Lovers Day?
