[mou-net] Rufous Hummingbird, Le Sueur County

2014-09-18 Thread Curt Rawn
The Rufous Hummingbird is still present in Le Sueur County at 30627 Pumpkin
Hill Rd. I met Steve Nesgoda at that address, and found him most welcoming.
He asks that you park in the drive and sign the guest book.

We can see the end of migration now. Many of the songbirds have
departed. I no longer see orioles or hummingbirds although the feeder
still hangs there. Some of the late fall migrants have arrived with more
to come soon.

In Douglas County on September 13, Beau Shroyer reported WILSON'S
PHALAROPES at Osakis in Douglas County.

Marshall Howe in Hubbard County reported a GREAT EGRET at his neighbor's
place on September 12. On the 11th at his place near Dorset, he had
RED-EYED VIREO and TENNESSEE WARBLER. On the 12th, there were
BLUE-HEADED VIREO, RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, and 8 species of warblers, on
the 13th he reported LEAST FLYCATCHER and EASTERN PHOEBE. Six COMMON
NIGHTHAWKS were seen on September 16.

In Polk County , Sandy Aubol reported six species of warblers,
BLUE-HEADED VIREO, PHILADELPHIA VIREO, RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, COMMON
NIGHTHAWK, and one PINE SISKIN on September 11. On the 13th
,WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW arrived, and next day there were SHARP-SHINNED
HAWK and WHITE-THROATED SPARROW. BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER and
LINCOLN'S SPARROW appeared on September 16th and HARRIS’S SPARROW on
September 18.

Here in the backyard in Pennington County I had BROWN CREEPER and
WHITE-THROATED SPARROW on September 14, and WARBLING VIREO and EASTERN
BLUEBIRD on September 17.

Thanks to Beau Shroyer, Marshall Howe, and Sandy Aubol for their

[mou-net] Sept 2014 Audubon Newsletter (with links to the special climate-and-birds-study issue)

For those who don't get "Audubon" magazine, the Sept-Oct issue is a special
issue centered on NAS 7-year study of birds of N America and the effects of
climate change.  There are links to an article about the study, as well as
the Chief Scientist/author Langham who conducted the study.  

There is also a link to an illustrated (watercolors) article in "National
Geographic" about the study.  

Coincidently, there are photos here of an immature common loon and a rufous
hummer, to illustrate two of the 300+ bird species that will be affected
according to modeling of climate and habitat changes.
