[mou-net] barred owl nesting
We have a Barred Owl nesting in an old wood duck house on our resort. She's somewhat skittish, but we see her daily and hear her nightly. I presume she is the same owl who nested with us last year. She produced two chicks last year, so we're hoping for the same success this year.

[mou-net] Timberdoodles
Thanks to a quick response from Larry S. we were able to observe our FOY Woodcocks at Afton State Park last night. Also, Brown Thrasher, Eastern Meadowlark and Orange-crowned Warbler. Perfect evening. Barb Sue (Hennepin County) Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
[mou-net] Black-necked Stilt at Lily Lake
Hey birders, I'm not on the web much over the weekend, but I thought I'd give a few details of the bird at Lily Lake. The bird was found by Andrew Krenz on Friday night around 6:15pm and foraged primarily on the south and southwest sides of the lake. It disappeared a couple of times while we were watching it. There is a small point with some fallen logs that it went behind a couple of times and it also disappeared into the grassy southwestern corner. The bird did such a disappearance before we left the area and could not be relocated on Friday night. This morning (Saturday), I relocated the bird right away when we pulled up around 7:20am and we called Bob Dunlap to post it. It was behind the small point again and almost immediately flew about a foot above the water to the west (about 100 yards), disappearing again into the grassy southwestern corner. It did not look like a departure flight. We tried to find the bird for another 40 minutes but then headed toward Lincoln WPA and eastern Watonwan County for some pre-planned birding. I will try and relocate the bird again on Sunday if I have the time. Happy birding!
