The Northern Hawk-owl I reported last week was still present at 10am and
3:30 pm today on the same snag on the west side of the road in the spruce
bog along Hwy 65, 3.6 miles north of CR 53. This area is about 17-18 miles
north of Nashwauk.

Hello again,
Ive been pondering this question for two days now, and Im having trouble
making up my mind! There are so many good birding areas in the region,
that its tough to pick just one as my most favorite. Having said that, I
will say that my all-time single favorite spot is Itasca State
We found the Hooded Warbler at 10 am this morning. This was our fourth=20=
attempt. While we heard them on earlier tries, today we were rewarded=20
with good views of both the male and female. We followed Bill's=20

Whenever we see many dickcissels in NW MN, it seems
to be because the weather is dry. They seem to show
up when we have lower than average rainfall. The last
time there were many dickcissels was back in 1988.
Many of you must remember that summer; it was very hot
and extremely dry. And up in NW
Hello all,
In response to Jim Williams' posting on duck stumps, I think it's a great
idea for birders to purchase federal duck stamps AND state fish and
wildlife stamps. You do not have to hunt or fish to buy these stamps -
anyone can do so. Many terrific birding areas are state owned and manage
I spent yesterday (6/27) birding out west.
Grant County:
Cattle Egrets-9 of them in amongst and on top of the cattle in the normal
pasture south of Pelican Lake on Ashby Estate Rd. E.
Traverse County:
Eurasian Collared Doves-2 of them still present in Wheaton near the grain
elevator.

I guess my favorite birding location is Bear Run Nature Preserve in SW
Pennsylvania. Bear Run is the stream that runs under Frank Lloyd
Wright's Fallingwater, the home he built for the Kaufmann family. I grew
up 20 miles away. Bear Run has been protected for many years, so mature

I guess for me the criteria for an enjoyable birding location are
remoteness, uniqueness, and diversity. I also prefer an area with
relatively light birding coverage as you can then explore and make your own
discoveries.

While it would be encouraging to believe that changes on the wintering
area has resulted in the increase of Dickcissels,I doubt that to be the
case.The literature on Dickcissels is noted for comments about their
fluctuation of numbers from year to year. That has certainly been my
experien
I have just posted new images to my website
http://www.greensphotoimages.com/gallery/. They are located in a folder
called "6/28 Posting" within the "New Images" album. It is mostly of
Ruby-Throated hummingbirds. My boss gave me an invitation to come over
anytime I wanted to visit his very larg
I am definitely seeing Dickcissels in larger numbers than I have ever seen
them before and in locations that I know that they have not been in the last
five or six years. I believe the abundance of Dickcissels is evidence that
they are no longer being persecuted in southern South America where
