Hello birders! I don't know if this is appropriate for this list or not, so please don't hesitate to correct me if not. My apologies if so!
My wife and I will lead a simple, short bird walk starting at Moir Park (near Old Shakopee & Penn in Bloomington) at 8am this Saturday (5/9), so if anyone is interested please email me -- there will be a limit of about 12. It will last about 2 hours on the trails following Nine-mile Creek. It will be geared more for beginners, but of course anyone is welcome. A good chance to brush up on the basics and get into the spring migration. Here are a few of the birds in the last week or so (and I'm hoping for a lot more warblers by Saturday): Cardinal White-throated Sparrow Chipping Sparrow Wood Thrush Hermit Thrush Robin Blue Jay Flicker Red-bellied Woodpecker Downy Woodpecker Hairy Woodpecker White-breasted Nuthatch Brown Creeper Goldfinch Chickadee Ruby-crowned Kinglet Golden-crowned Kinglet Yellow-rumped Warbler Palm Warbler Eastern Phoebe Easter Pewee Checklists will be provided.
