Enjoyed doing some birding over the weekend in northern Minnesota. At Gu= nflint Lodge near the end of Gunflint trail were many Purple Finches and = American Goldfinches along with several Evening Grosbeaks and a Pileated = Woodpecker. Just south along the Gunflint trail were small flocks of Sno= w Buntings. On Hwy 2 north of Two Harbors didn't see the Spruce Grouse but were lots = of Pine Siskins along with small groups of Purple Finches and White-winge= d Crossbills. =20 Did a couple of hours of hiking the trails with one of the lodge naturali= sts and while the birding wasn't spectacular was fun seeing wolf tracks a= nd adjacent Common Raven tracks.
