[mou] Summer 2008 Season
The summer season (6/1 - 7/31) has ended. If you will be submitting a seasonal report for inclusion in the summer summary to be published in The Loon, please do so now. We strongly encourage submissions using the MOU website (http://moumn.org/ ). Look under "Reporting Birds," then "On-line Seasonal Reporting." Birds reported on mou-net are NOT automatically considered when the seasonal reports are compiled, so please also take the extra step of submitting your observations via the website. If you don't know how to use the website, send me an e-mail and I'll help you navigate it. If, for some reason, you cannot use the website, send any paper submissions of seasonal report data to me at the address below. Any documentation of Casual or Accidental species should also be done on line, at this same website. Paper documentation to be considered by the state records committee should be mailed directly to the MOURC Chair, Peder Svingen. Thanks for your observations and the details you provide!

[mou] Saturday morning banding
I took a few hours this morning to try and catch Sedge Wrens at Carver Park near Victoria, MN for a study I'm doing. I had some success and have posted pictures of birds in the hand on my blog for those who might be interested. http://minnesotabirdnerd.blogspot.com Roger Everhart Apple Valley, MN www.ncbo.org
