[mou] April 26th birds Dakota County
--part1_d3.1c0d70d3.2bdda2e0_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit It was a nice day yesterday and was pretty active. I spent some time at Ritter Farm Park for a banding program, and later in the day I walked around Bass Ponds and the Old Cedar Bridge. Species seen at Ritter: @ Nashville Warbler- first one of the year for me. @ 4 broad winged hawks ~ Lots of Field Sparrows. I checked out the Great Horned Owl nest. Mom was off the nest but I could see that there were two young, not one. Bass Ponds the Old Cedar Bridge @ Redhead @ Red Necked Grebe- Thanks to a fellow birder for pointing it out! @ Yellow Warbler- first of the season It was a good day! P.S. Went to Bass Ponds today... Not to much, but I saw a female Northern Harrier.
