On the way home from Crane Meadows NWR "Habitat Day" today, I saw 3 American kestrels - two in Morrison County (near Royalton and Bowlus) and one in Stearns County (between Avon and Holdingford). Also saw two birds on the way home from work yesterday - one in Benton County and one in Stearns County - all different birds. These are the first I've seen since late fall.
Snow buntings have disappeared and been replaced with horned larks - they are plentiful on rural roads! Redpoll population at home has increased to 13 birds this afternoon!
