Spotted an adult female hunting along Polk Co 20. Totally white and huge. I thought for sure she was going to get hit by a truck as she flew low, towards the shoulder of the road. She stopped short of the truck and grabbed a rodent (feeding on grasses and grains exposed by yesterday's snow plows) with one foot and flew back into the field where she gulped it down.
Also spotted 4 Rough-legged Hawks on power poles... and an American Robin singing in a spruce heavy with snow just outside my door. -- Heidi Hughes Agassiz Audubon Society 120 East Bridge Ave Warren MN 56762 218.745.5663 http://www.facebook.com/AgassizAudubon http://www.facebook.com/WatershedDistrict ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
