10/26/04 We encounter 53 species of birds on and around Lake Mille Lac's with the following being some of the more unusual species encountered. @ Pacific Loon - 12:10pm - This bird was observed from CR 35 on the South side of Vineland Bay. The bird was actively diving about mid way in the bay. We tried to get a closer view from the North side of the bay, but the viewing was much better from the South side and we were unable to relocate the bird after that. @ Black-bellied Plover, Sanderling & Dunlin - CR 35, just before it heads back to Hyw 169 along Vineland Bay. @ Northern Shrike - Several were observed South of the town of Cove @ Common Raven - CR 27, 1/2 mile East of Hyw 169. @ Townsend's Solitaire - 8:45am - This bird briefly observed perched on the East side of the Public Access at the town of Cove on the South West side of Lake Mille Lac's and then observed in flight by the group. We searched the area West and South of the boat access for the next hour or so without success in relocating the bird.
