[mou-net] Loggerhead Shrike, Washington County

2019-04-24 Thread JULIAN SELLERS
I observed a Loggerhead Shrike today near Division Street and St. Croix Trail.  
I arrived at 11:20 to see if kestrels are using the nest box across Division 
Street from the Bison Prairie parking lot.  In two hours, I did not see any 
kestrels.  I did, however, see a Loggerhead Shrike along the north-south fence 
line north of Division Street and a bit west of the entrance to the Bison 
Prairie Parking lot.  The shrike was in the area for about 15 minutes.  A good 
scope view from 400 feet and the calendar give me confidence that it was a 
Loggerhead, not Northern, Shrike.  At about 2:15, the shrike flushed from the 
fence on the west side of St. Croix Trail north of Division Street as I drove 
past.  This is the same general area where a Northern Mockingbird was present 
two years ago.

2019-04-24 Thread Bob Dunlap
There are currently 6 American Avocets in the flooded east end of the
runway at the St. Paul Downtown Airport. At the east end of Bayfield St.
there is a viewing area. Walk south from the viewing area to the fence to
view the extensive flooded area.
