Just returned from seeing family & friends in Madison, WI (second son sworn
in as county deputy) - easy to forget that sometimes the best post-migration
bird in a suburban yard might be a cardinal.
Returned today, only had time for a short late lunch walk at Pioneer Park
here in Princeton. However, a singing Wood Thrush, calling Yellow-billed
Cuckoo and flyaway Barred Owl only serve to remind me how blessed I am to
live in central Minnesota.
Easy to forget until one leaves.

Mille Lacs & Sherburne Counties
PS For any Wisconsin readers, this was not intended as a slam against
Madison! Still have more county birds in that area than I do in Sherburne
or Mille Lacs.
