[mou-net] Whitewater WMA

2017-05-08 Thread Andrea Brandon
A beautiful weekend spent exploring the Whitewater WMA for ramps, morels, and 
warblers. While we had great success on the first two, warblers were strangely 
scarce. Along the North Fork of the Whitewater, we only observed one blue wing 
warbler, one black throated green, two yellows, a few palm warblers, and 
numerous yellow rumps. Other birds of note include pileated woodpecker, eastern 
phoebe, and quite a few eastern towhees.

County at sunset this evening.

Lots of American and Great Plains Toads calling in the same area.

Today a friend from St Paul called to say she had a pair of
Rose-breasted Grosbeaks. It has been 3 years since she has had them.
