Came across a adult Red-shouldered Hawk in Sherburne County yesterday. It was hunting with a kingfisher over an open water marsh just west of the intersection of Cty Rds 1 and 87. This seems a bit far north for a wintering bird, although they do nest in the area.
Although maybe it is a sign of the times as the Ann Lake Campground area Townsend's Solitaire was harrassing a flicker in its recent normal area south of 253rd, one mile east of the intersection of Cty Rds 4 and 5. Flickers are allover this winter. Dennis and Barbara Martin dbmar...@skypoint.com
