Tuesday morning Vic Lewis, Bill Brown and I spent a chilly, breezy, buggy morning birding Sherburne NWR. Counting birds we saw driving up and back we got 71 species.
We were not able to find the cerulean warbler and it was too windy to hear the least bitterns. Highlights were a great view of a grasshopper sparrow standing in the road on the auto tour, a nice look at a Virginia rail which flew in front of us, and a couple of noisy yellow-headed blackbirds. Also, at the eagle nest there were two juveniles (one on the nest and one in the tree) and an adult in the tree. ---- Join or Leave mou-net:http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
