While helping with the Sherburne NWR Christmas Bird Count this morning, my brother Vic and I found a Northern Goshawk near Santiago. From Santiago, go north on CR11 about =BE mile, turn left(west) onto 12th St. SE. In about a half mile, the road turns south, and shortly after that, turns west again. The Goshawk was seen in the area between the two turns. =20 This afternoon I found at least 2 Bohemian Waxwings among a large flock (100 birds?) of Cedar Waxwings in Benton County. I found these in the same spot I located a Bohemian Waxwing about a month ago. I also had a brief look at a very interesting waxwing with large white blotches on its head and back, presumably a partial albino. =20 The Waxwings were about 1.8 miles south of Rice on CR55. CR55 runs right along the west side of the railroad tracks in Rice. As I mentioned last time, there is a half-mile stretch of juniper trees lining the road where the waxwings were, so there is lots of food to keep them around. =20 Herb Dingmann St. Cloud ------=_NextPart_000_0005_01C3C19C.E8EAB260 Content-Type: text/html;
