Over the past week there have been 4 cardinals sighted between 47.5 and 48 degrees north latitude in northeastern Minnesota. On Thursday, Steve Schon saw and reported a female northern cardinal at his bird feeder in Ely. This morning Wayne Mickowski saw male and female northern cardinals at his bird feeder in Babbitt. Besides those sightings in St. Louis County, a male cardinal was spotted last Sunday by Norma Malinowski and seen by several others along the Croftwille Road just north of Grand Marais in Cook County.
Who knows where they will pop up next. Bill Tefft Ely 218-365-6785
