This afternoon, I received 2 phone calls. Both callers have a VARIED THRUSH coming to their feeders. The first is at the home of John and Pat Francis located north of Aitkin, just off of C.R.1. Directions: from the Mississippi River bridge on the north side of town, go north on C.R. 1 for 3 & 4/10 th miles to 391 st Lane. Heading east on 391 st Lane, they are the first farm on the south side . I don't have exact directions to the other bird. It is coming to a feeder near Nord Lake southeast of Aitkin. Also, the LOGGERHEAD SHRIKES are still present as of 7:30 this evening. Directions: from the Mississippi River bridge on the north side of town, go north on C.R.1 for 8 & 8/10 th miles .
