[mou-net] Prothonotary Warbler Dakota County Hastings

2011-07-12 Thread jbaines317
I'm happy to report Tom Thomsen & I located a brilliant male Prothonotary 
Warbler near Lock & Dam 2 in Hastings.
He was bringing an insect into the woods-likely to nestlings.
He was in a clump of trees along the left hand side (Lake Rebecca side) of the 
levee trail past the dam.

Hi all,

Thanks to Steve Weston and Jennifer Vieth, I got a better handle on the 
location of the Hastings Prothonotary Warbler.  So, Jill and I went to look for 
it this morning, along with Ginkgo and Minnie, our Papillons.

We all walked from our place down to the river and we concentrated mostly in 
the area near where the dike path curves up the hill, birding the woods on 
either side.  We didn't see the Prothonotary, but we did get a whole bunch of 
good stuff, including several Gray Catbirds, Baltimore Orioles, a male and 
female Common Yellowthroat, a VERY BRIEF glimpse at a Marsh Wren, a Sora, 
Chimney Swift, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, a pair of Green Herons, Yellow Warbler 
(heard and seen), a Red-eyed Vireo (heard further up the path; we have also had 
one in our yard), and multiple swallow species (Tree, Barn and Rough-winged), 
Killdeer, a Spotted Sandpiper and other species.  We totatled 40 species for 
the day.

But no Prothonotary.  Sigh...

I'd like to go look for this bird today, but I am not sure where this "trail" 
is.  I know how to get to Lock And Dam Number 2, but after that...

BlankPark at Lock and Dam Number 2 on the Mississippi River in Hastings.  
Follow the trail behind the fence and across the sand dike to the other side 
where there is open water on the left side of the trail.  It was singing in the 
trees along the waters edge on the left.
