[mou-net] Red Knot, Grant County (North Ottawa impoundment)
Hi, Early this evening I observed a Red Knot from the viewing platform on 260th St at the North Ottawa impoundment. It was with a Black-bellied Plover still in nearly full breeding plumage, 2 American Golden-plovers and 2 Sanderlings. This small flock disappeared while I was retrieving my digiscoping camera from my car and I was unable to refind the Red Knot in a short search from the perimeter roads - I did not hike down any of the interior roads.

(Posted by Milton J. Blomberg via moumn.org) Red Knot in the large SW Albany WTP cell, all the way across in the NNW sector amid the rip-rap and weed growth where it can be easily hidden.

[mou-net] Red Knot in Stearns Co. (Albany sewage ponds)
Of some interest - actually, of *much* interest to me as a Stearns Co. guy - was a juvenile Red Knot at the Albany sewage ponds. The knot was present when I arrived at the ponds (4:40 PM) and was still present when I left (7:25 PM). It was in the triangular (southeasternmost) pond, sometimes on the pond's west side and sometimes on its north side.

Re: [mou-net] Red Knot - Albany WTP
Over the lunch hour, I ran out to Albany – spent about an hour scoping the rock riprap along the pond margins, but had no luck. I’m not sure how much this means. Around here right now there’s a stiff wind out of the NW (varying from 15 to 25 mph), which makes longer-distance scope viewing difficult, so if the bird was on the opposite side of the big lagoon from me I could have easily missed it, what with my scope bouncing around in the breeze. Also, the Albany sewage-pond complex has two ponds that you can’t see from the road, so if the bird decided to spend some time at one of those ponds Phil Chu Department of Biology St. John’s University Collegeville, MN 56321 On 9/5/17, 10:52 AM, "Minnesota Birds on behalf of Steven & Cynthia Broste" wrote: This morning, Kyle Peterson posted images taken yesterday afternoon at the Albany Waste Treatment Plant of a juvenile Red Knot.

Re: [mou-net] Red Knot sighting GPS coordinates
the shelter building is probably at the intersection where 330 Ave used to be. the north border of the impoundment is 260th St and the south border is 240th St. the west border is the county line with Traverse Co and is 340 Ave. today because of the saturated roads I took Grant County 1 west to Grant County 42 or 300th Ave north to 260th St. it is a large campus. the Red Knot that is being seen is actually red - not in winter coat - and was just where John Richardson found it 24 hours ago in the area looking south from 260th St just east of the shelter building at 330th Ave. because of its color and the bright sunshine this morning and calm water, the bird and its reflection were easy to find. I hope this helps? if not reply and I'll try again.

[mou-net] Red Knot ~ Hennepin County
I observed a breeding adult Red Knot early this morning out from the Old Cedar Avenue Bridge observation platform. It was in with a large mixed flock of shorebirds predominantly Dunlins on the southern most fludflats. When I came out the parking lot was filled with major construction equipment and trailors and I barely had room to squeeze out of there, it will hard to find a place to park if you can get in.

While walking along the Park Point beach about 200 yards north of the airport yesterday morning, I saw one Red Knot with in a mixed flock of 5 Ruddy Turnstones, 5 Semipalmated Plovers, several Sanderlings, 20+ Semipalmated Sandpipers, and 1 Dunlin.

Re: [mou-net] red knot and horseshoe crab -- tonight on PBS + FLanting photo exhibit extended at Bell Museum
I tuned into to this program when it was broadcast last year. It's a compelling story, vital to the Red Knot, the Horseshoe Crab, and to Humans. Please watch Channel 2 tonight and then act; let your Congressional delegation know that this issue is important to you and that you want them to make laws to protect habitat and preserve these species. With so many demands for tax dollars for different "critical" causes, it's important that we birders make our voices heard. We are one of the largest special interest groups and do have considerable clout. Time is short. Please speak out on this issue.
