[mou-net] Gray Partridge - Dak Cnty

[Bruce Baer]

A half dozen Gray Partridge flushed from the road edge when I turned in the 
Industrial Park area near Randolph.

Lake Byllesby had plenty of habit for shorebirds, but only two Killdeer could 
be found. No waterfowl to speak of either.

[mou-net] Grey Partridge

[Gary Ash]

It seem that three times is the charm for me.  It took me three tries to see
the Varied Thrush in Roseville and it took me three tries to see the Grey
Partridge in Dakota County.  But Judith Sparrow and I saw the Grey Partridge
at 180th and Joan tonight at 6:00 PM.
Sorry Jim, they showed up ten minutes after you left.

[mou-net] No Partridge

[Curt Rawn]

While birding in Dakota County, today, we saw Snow Buntings, and Horned Larks. 
Our quest was the Gray Partridge, but sadly we were shut out. We watched the 
area of 180th St. and Joan Ave around 2:15 pm and from 5-6:15 pm. 

It was a chilly, but beautiful day, and we walked at Carpenter Park. While 
there, we saw a pair of immature Bald Eagles soaring overhead. 

There would be no challenge, if you saw every bird you went after.

Birding with Linda Whyte.

Seven gray partridges tonight digging in the snow one-quarter mile north of

at dusk.

[mou-net] gray partridge/Rochester

[James Griffin]

With the new snow cover I decided to try for gray partridge by the airport 
radar tower. No luck. This is my 3rd attempt in that area. Any other Rochester 
area suggestions. I did see the post for Dakota Cty. Maybe I will take the ride 
this afternoon.

[mou-net] Gray Partridge - Dakota County

[Steve Weston]

I have seen Huns (Gray Partridge) in several places around Dakota County and 
elsewhere in the state, but I have never found them to be dependable.  In 
fact, I have always considered that even knowing where they were being seen 
was of little help in finding these cuties.  But, today I joined several 
other birders waiting at 180th and Joan watching a bare snow covered field. 
And, as promised, right at dusk, eight Huns flew in and started running 
around and diving into the snow to feed.  They would run a few feet and 
burrow down about four inches into the snow so they mostly below the snow. 
After a few minutes they would pop out and run and dig in again. They were 
completely unconcerned with the proximity of our cars.  Shortly before they 
flew in, we walked around the hedge, finding only the tracks were they had 
flown and run into the hedge.   The only othere birds around the area were a 
pair of Red-tailed Hawks and flocks of Horned Larks feeding along the road.

[mou-net] Gray Partridge ~ Dakota Co.

[Conny Brunell]

This morning I had the good fortune of seeing a covey of 8 Gray Partridge in 
Dakota County.  
They were visible from 180th St., and the intersection of Joan Ave feeding out 
in the open
agricultural fields on the north side of 180th St.  This is south of Hastings 
and east of Northfield
Boulevard CR 47.
