[mou-net] Bird Hike near Redwing this Sunday

2014-08-13 Thread Steve Weston
Hi all,

I will be leading a MRVAC field trip this Sunday (8/24) in the Canon River
bottoms area near Redwing.  All are welcome, no reservations and please no
calls to let me know you are coming.

Directions:  From Hwy 52, head towards Redwing.  Continue down the long
hill past the turn off for the Treasure Island Casino.  Turn left after
that turn off (no, not into that driveway) onto CR 46 (at the bottom of the
hill, not the top of the hill!).  Stay right along the river at the fork.
 You are now on Collischan Road (for your GPS).  Follow the road for about
2.5 miles.  Right after two houses on the left, the road will fork.  Take
the left fork into the parking area for the trail head.

The trail is a level abandoned railroad bed, but I have not gotten out
there this year to see what condition this unmaintained trail is in.   If
you bring a lunch, and conditions are good, we may head to a second
location after lunch.  If you are late, just follow the trail and you will
find us.

Target birds include: cuckoos, Cerulean Warbler, Acadian Flycatcher,
Scarlet Tanager, early migratants, and other deep woods birds.  Expect
mosquitos.

2014-08-13 Thread dbmartin
Denny and I, along with Bob Janssen and Dave  Cahlander have been watching the 
2 terns.and it looks like one is an breeding plumage adult and one is a 
juvenile.

Denny and I have continued to watch these  2 birds and saw the adult feed the 
juvenile, as of 12:00 PM (Noon).

Both terns observed 7:05 to 7:25PM Wednesday evening - very hyperactive 
- seemed to hit the water every minute or so.
