Curt, I was just there 15 minutes ago and it looks like the Ross's was back, hanging with a flock of Canada Geese on the ballfield just east of the Hopkins Pavillion. I tried logging in to post it but everything's expired or gone cold on me, if you want to pass the latest along. Thanks Chris Kurtz MTKA -----Original Message----- From: Minnesota Birds [mailto:MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU] On Behalf Of Curt Rawn Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2013 2:12 PM To: MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU Subject: Re: [mou-net] Ross's Goose - Hopkins Ross's goose not re-found this morning to early afternoon. I looked on the hill described in the earlier post and in several areas around it where other geese were seen. Many Canada geese, crow, and turkey vultures were seen there. I will try again later today.
