Tonight Warren Nelson and I went birding to Cty Rd 18 & Cty Rd 5 North
of Palisade, Minnesota. The following birds were observed:
1.) Jct169 & Cty Rd 18--Northern Hawk Owl flew in front of vehicle with
a mouse
in its talons. (6:30Pm)
2.) Sharp Tail Grouse--(2) on south side of Cty Rd 18 approx 2 miles east of
169.
3.) Sandhill Crane--(1) Cty Rd 5 approx 2miles south of Cty Rd 18 on west
side of road.
4.) Great Grey Owl--(1) .2 mile east of Pietz Road. We watched the owl
catch a
mouse, kill it, swallow it and fly
back up to an oak tree. (7:30PM)
5.) Bald Eagle--(1) Mature bird on 169 heading back to Aitkin
Good Birding,
