the birds; I had a six mile round-trip on saturday, starting at the Ob

one of the parks or nature areas along the Minnesota

Had a great time birding the Hawk Ridge Birdathon. Birding in Sax-Zim was
productive, more so than in Duluth, which was

by sightings of a single indivual. Our
personal highlights included:
