[mou] Consider....

[Pastor Al Schirmacher]

As I walked (a rather quiet) Mahnomen Trail in Sherburne NWR this morning, 
contemplated what has been seen either in or within a ten mile radius of the 
refuge in just the past two years (AOU order):

* Greater White-fronted Goose
* Ross' Goose
* Little Blue Heron (pending)
* Northern Goshawk
* Least Tern
* Great Gray Owl
* Acadian Flycatcher
* Loggerhead Shrike
* Townsend's Solitaire
* Bohemian Waxwing
* Black-throated Blue Warbler
* Hooded Warbler
* Yellow-breasted Chat
* 23 warblers, single day, single trail (two+ hours)
* Lark Sparrow (nester)
* Henslow's Sparrow
* Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow.

Perhaps - as you contemplate your 2006 birding schedule - you might want to 
pencil in a day here.

Unabashedly a fan,

This morning, before heading off to school, I spied a TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE
flitting low in the open trees across from the Lakeview Castle, right next
to the lake shore. I think I got some half way decent pics, as it was fairl=
y
tame. It seemed like it might stay around. Also, in the Spruces, just NE of
the Lakeview Castle was BOREAL CHICKADEE avidly calling. There were also a
few Snow Buntigns around. I was beginning to wonder when driving 9 miles of
Scenic 61 everday was going to pay off...
 For those of you who aren't familiar with Lakeview Castle, it's on Scenic
Highway 61 running NE out of Duluth, about 9 miles out of town, just on the
left hand side of the road.

[mou] No Tufted Titmouse today - Oct 25, 2005

[Terence Brashear]

I watched for the bird this afternoon for 2 hours and
did not see it.  The Fox Sparrow and Junco flock was
there so I hope it is still around.

I'll let you know if I see it again.

I have updated my photo web site to make it easier to navigate.  I have also
put on some new bird photos:  a Bald Eagle flying into its nesting site on
Hwy 36, a Great Egret in flight at the 180th Street Marsh, a Wilson's Snipe
at the 180th Street Marsh, an American White Pelican in flight, a pair of
Mallards, and a Blue Jay.  The American White Pelican was photographed at
Lake Rebecca in Hastings yesterday (Monday).  There were three of them there
at the time (late afternoon).  Please let me know if you have any problems
with my newer web site.
