This morning at the Bass Ponds in Bloomington there was a male Eastern Towhee with a flock of White-throated Sparrows. It was at the west side near Hwy. 77 in the oak litter. There were also a couple of Savannah sparrows mixed in with the Field and Song flocks in the trails here, and a Winter Wren by the wooden footbridge over the stream between Little Bass and Big Bass pond. Many Swamp sparrows singing in the marshes.
At Old Cedar I saw my first Blue-gray Gnatcatcher of the season (thanks for sending 'em on up, Carol!). There were also two Brown Thrashers singing and an American Bittern and a Green Heron in the marsh below the garden center. Chris ===== Chris Mansfield Richfield, Hennepin Co.
