This is a list of birds we saw yesterday at the Big Bog north of Washkish. I didn't hear any Connecticut Warblers (also hadn't heard any at Sax-Zim on June 8th). I figured on the 8th it might have been a bit early, but for the sole purpose of getting a Connecticut, but hadn't heard any from Michigan across to MN, and had checked out quite a few out of the way bogs south of International Falls. Has anyone heard or seen any on territory this June?
Besides the birds listed below we stopped at Blackduck Lake and saw 2 Red-necked Grebes, one beautiful male Common Goldeneye and a Black-billed Magpie in a yard near the lake.
