On an MOU field trip I led this morning, we turned up an Acadian Flycatcher singing at the edge of a vernal pool between trail markers 15 and 10. This is a difficult bird for the county and was an unexpected find at this location. For convenience to those following up, here is a gps pin: (45.1826432, -93.6398207)
In total, we tallied 63 species, some of which were life birds for the 10 attendees that joined me for a five mile hike through beautiful Crow Hassan Park Reserve. Here is a full accounting of our observations: https://ebird.org/mn/checklist/S140332917 Best, Trey Weaver MOU Field Trip Coordinator ---- General information and guidelines for posting: https://moumn.org/listservice.html Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html During the pandemic, the MOU encourages you to stay safe, practice social distancing, and continue to bird responsibly.
