We will be driving to Mankato this weekend (from our home in Cotton) and I
would love to show my younger son a Red Headed Woodpecker, a bird he has never
seen. I would welcome any advice about reliable areas to search between here
and there, or any other great birding areas near St
I found a beautiful displaying male Spruce Grouse last Friday on the Echo
Trail in northern St. Louis County. Please see the showcase section of the
MOU website for a photo. He was very cooperative posing and displaying
while I took several photos and videos. For the video go to youtube:
Last week I caught on video two Ruffed Grouse battling it out on the side of

Crane Meadows National Wildlife Refuge is having a bird outing led by Milt
Blomberg and Caleb Gosiak on Sunday May. 3rd from 7:00 to 10:00 with a
brunch following. No charge. Crane Meadows wants to show off their new
trails and spotting decks that look over the Platte River and Rice-Skunk
Lake.
I forgot to say Milt will be taking groups out after the 10:00 brunch to
other areas close to Crane Meadows.

newer arrivals

River) when it should have been east off U.S. Hwy 10 on Iris Road (county
35) 5 miles. Sorry for any confusion.

I received three sets of directions and several requests for information
from my earlier post regarding Eurasian-collared Doves in Farmington.
All three sets of directions would have gotten me there eventually but
combined I found it on my first try. Here's my version for everyone:

Bob Dunlap has confirmed a male immature Summer Tanager at my feeders
today from an iphoto I mailed him earlier this evening. Obviously I
have never seen a Summer Tanager here before and along with the
Eastern Towhee (2nd sighting in my feeder area) I took 114 photos
today. Thank God for
