2012-03-25 Thread Barb McGregor_Sue Bergman
While birding in William O'Brien State Park we saw 1 Tree Swallow. Later, we saw 2 more on Chisago County 81 70.   Also noted were Fox Sparrows, Purple Finch, Rusty Blackbirds, Northern Flicker.   It will be difficult :-) to see warblers when the trees are already leafed out!   Sue Bergman
