[mou-net] Mille Lacs Warblers

19 warblers in Hennepin & Kathio State Parks - nice to see multiple waves throughout the morning (7:30 to 12:00). Of course, do you think I could find the 20th (like Yellow, or Orange-crowned, or Canada, or Red-faced...?) Good birding to all! Al Schirmacher Princeton, MN Mille Lacs & Sherbur

[mou-net] Grand Marias-Female Harlequin

I saw the female Harlequin Duck today in Grand Marais. She was first seen in the west bay, near the Lake Superior Trading Post. She then flew to the east bay and was foraging along the shore with a group of Common Mergansers. There have also been two Red-necked Grebes in the west bay. I saw

[mou-net] Hooded Warbler, Dakota Co.

Today around 12:00 I found a male Hooded Warbler at Lebanon Hills Regional Park in Dakota County. It was singing incessantly for the 10-15 minutes I was near it. I know others had seen one there this spring (and last year as well) so I'm assuming this is probably the same guy on territory.
