[mou-net] Migration season - pros/cons of evening birding

(Posted by Tom Gilde via moumn.org) I’m wondering about the rewards of “after supper” excursions in the specific context of migrating songbirds. Are migrants less likely to be active if they are planning to hit the road overnight? Thanks for your insights. Join or Leave

A significant migration of songbirds and other bird species is predicted for Minnesota tonight, Thursday, Sept. 3, by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. The lab calls this a high-intensity migration, hundreds of thousands to millions of birds depending on location. The map for the Twin Cities and

Hey birders, Reports of Canada Geese in the area are picking up and the Bethany Hawkwatch has already recorded 35 migrant raptors this week. The early version of Spring is on the way! Happy birding! Chad Heins Mankato *Chad Heins* Assistant Professor of Biology Bethany Lutheran

[mou-net] Migration in Becker Co.

Warmer weather has speeded things a bit. Several species of warblers at Tamarac: Yellow-rumped, Black-and-White, Palm, Orange-crowned and an early Nashville. Prairie Chickens dancing on the lek at Hamden Slough. The Detroit Lakes Festival of Birds is only 16 days away. Doug Buri doing a shorebird

[mou-net] migration phenomenon

I had over 100 Franklin's gulls circling quite low over my yard feasting on what I call the ant party (when winged-ants disperse). This was my 142nd yard bird. They were heading towards Black Dog. This is how I got my Hennepin Cty. Franklin's at my parent's house years ago (straight north of

Migration finally hitting. 13 new year birds last two days. Waterfowl fully here. Sparrows arriving (10 in Sherburne/Mille Lacs area today), although White-throated, White-crowned, Clay-colored and Grasshopper still MIA. Shorebirds very light. Only one species of warbler and one of

[mou-net] Migration

Migration in Sherburne Mille Lacs continues to trickle: Winter Wren today, Sora yesterday, couple of Yellow-rumped; even migrants from a week ago (like Fox Sparrows E. Bluebirds) are negligible. Estimate we are 14-17 days behind currently, my year totals are 40-50+ short of normal.

As I walked through the Tangletown neighborhood of St. Paul near Macalester College this morning, a Golden-winged Warbler and a Wood Thrush were among the birds singing. Julian St. Paul Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:

I provided a link to this yesterday but found it so helpful that I decided to provide more details for those who may have missed my first message. NOAA and Cornell have teamed up to provide migration forecasts. Some info from their first report: Below are some of the species groups to watch

[mou-net] Migration at Sherburne NWR

There's been tons of action at the refuge today - warblers, vireos, grosbeaks - following a feeding flock of chickadees around the building.  Cedar waxwings are feeding on Virginia creeper berries.  A really scruffy-looking cardinal showed up this afternoon.  I have a hard time concentrating on

It has been slow so far but had a Wilson's Warbler at Dunton Locks Park in Detroit Lakes and a few yellowlegs at Hamden Slough. Water levels at Bisson Lake have not yet been lowered so there is not much mud. Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:

[mou-net] Migration and Byllesby Update

I have been birding in Minnesota now for about 4 years and this seems to be by far the worst warbler migration I've seen here. It's strange because I've actually seem tons of Yellow Warblers and Common Yellowthroats. I have also seen some Redstarts and heard some Tennessees and other than that

Must have had a good night for migration, got up this morning to a ton of Robins in the yard all fighting over the water dishes I have in the front yard.. I also had an adult Baltimore Oriole in my front Birch tree. I still have plenty of Hummers and I noticed more Chipping Sparrows in the yard

[mou-net] Migration a bit slow?

Is anyone else experiencing a bit of a slow migration? Warbler and vireo species are light, most represented by 1-3 individuals; shorebirds are virtually non-existent here in Mille Lacs Sherburne Counties. Today had eight warbler species during 2+ hours of walking (two locations), no more
