Here's a little question I have about Park Point. I'll have to admit that I seem to make it there on the boring days more often than not, but sometimes I have a good day. Anyway, I understand why water birds like Red-throated Loons and Whimbrels are found there and I understand why it is often good in autumn due to the 'funneling' effect of Lake Superior. However, I don't really understand why western land birds like Scissor-tailed Flycatcher and Western Kingbird would turn up there in spring. Does anyone know why this is? Why do these birds seem to disappear into obscurity after leaving the point?
Why aren't more of them showing up in Itasca County?!? :) _________________________________________________________________ PC Magazine?s 2007 editors? choice for best Web mail?award-winning Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migration_HM_mini_pcmag_0507
