It seems that the large black bird with the diamond-shaped tail that I saw fly into the woods near Rushford would be a rare find if it were in fact a Common Raven (first county record). Unfortunately, I am probably wrong. I was un-aware the Raven does not frequent this corner of the state and when I saw the large bird with said tail feathers I jumped to conclusions. I apologize. If someone with more experience would like to take a look, it was on hwy 16 about 1-2 miles east of Rushford in Fillmore County. There was also a bald eagle (about a mile farther West) as the DNR has put out some deer carcasses to feed the eagles. Thanks, Carl 'foot in mouth' Greiner ------=_NextPart_000_0038_01C7520F.AF3F5960 Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dus-ascii"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.6000.16414" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><SPAN class=3D037244402-17022007><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>It = seems that the=20 large black bird with the diamond-shaped tail that I saw fly into the = woods near=20 Rushford would be a rare find if it were in fact a Common Raven (first = county=20 record).
