Yesterday my friends and I had a successful and very fun day conducting a Golden Eagle survey, in Wabasha, MN, which is a little south of the Twin Cities. We ended our full day of birding with two Golden Eagles, the only ones seen for the day! Other sightings include:
BLACK-BACKED WOODPECKER (1) EASTERN BLUEBIRD (1) Northern Flicker Red-bellied Woodpecker Rough-legged Hawks Bald Eagles Red-tailed Hawks American Kestrel Wild Turkey (lots of em!) Black-capped Chickadee White-breasted Nuthatch American Crow Blue Jay Northern Cardinal Just outside of our surveying area, we had 3 Sharp-tailed Grouse fly across the road. Farther north in Minnesota today, I skied the a afternoon away (just a little west of Two Harbors), and had 1 Pine Grosbeak, Common Redpolls, and a few Black-capped Chickadees. Good birding!
