74 species over the last week (Saturday & following) in Sherburne & Mille Lacs Counties:
* 11 sparrow species (counting Lapland Longspur & Snow Bunting), somehow missed Tree this week, Harris' seemingly through * Still only nine waterfowl species, anticipate this will increase shortly * Three warblers (YR, Orange-crowned, Palm) * Two shorebirds (Killdeer & Black-bellied Plover) * Sizeable flock of Rusty Blackbirds (200+) on the Sherburne NWR Auto Tour * Saturday's Boreal Chickadees along the Mille Lacs lakefront certainly the highlight. Good birding to all! Al Schirmacher Princeton, MN Mille Lacs & Sherburne Counties
