If you've never seen a loggerhead shrike before, head down to Dakota County this weekend. I've never seen so many in one spot. On 180th St between Fisher and Emery I saw 10! Then when I headed north on Emery, I saw 2 more before I got to 160th. There are kestrels fledging all over down there too and one young kestrel landed next to a shrike. The shrike looked like it wanted to take off, but not sure it could out fly the kestrel. The kestrel just looked happy to be there.
