Hello Birders, This evening I stopped by Pickerel Lake in Lilydale park which straddles the southernmost part of Ramsey County and the Northernmost part of Dakota County. It was worth a look with my scope:
All 3 mergansers - over half a dozen Red-breasted, twice as many Hoodies and Commons were about even with R-B. Common Loon - 2 FOY Pie-billed Grebe - FOY Ring-billed Gulls Song Sparrow Red-winged Blackbirds Earlier in the day at Big Rivers Regional Trail the highlights were a Pileated Woodpecker (FOY) and watching a mature Bald Eagle catch dinner and then dine. -- Sincerely, Jim Ryan Saint Paul's Westside -- Your life is what your thoughts make it. - Marcus Aurelius http://naturalobservations.blogspot.com/ -- ---- Join or Leave mou-net:http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
