Nathan and I are contemplating a run to Aitkin County on Saturday. Familiar with CR 18, 5, Palisade & Rice Lake NWR. Are there other areas that you would recommend as well, particularly for:
* Evening Grosbeaks * Pine Grosbeaks * WW & Red Crossbills * Boreal Chickadees (know the snowmobile trail off 18, but Nathan hasn't been able to find one there - lifer for him)? Any input helpful. Do have Eckert & Janssen/Tessen books. Thanks! Al Schirmacher Princeton, MN Mille Lacs & Sherburne Counties
