I had a very successful trip out to the Salt Lake festival, found over a hundred species. The Marbled Godwit was still at Cory Lake on Sunday. We also found a couple of American Pipits there, including an unstreaked bird that appeared to be an alticola subspecies, which would not be expected here. Plover Prairie was very unrewarding in comparision to recent years, although a couple of different groups reported a singing Eastern Meadowlark there. Ken found a Pileated Woodpecker near Marrietta, unusual for the western part of the county.
today (Monday) I had a Sand Hill Crane fly over Hwy-169 just south of Isanti. I have a report that Whip-poor-wills, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, and Baltimore Orioles have been found in Goodhue County. -- Steve Weston swest...@comcast.net ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
