My last day with Ted from Virginia. Highlights: Aitkin County
Evening Grosbeaks near Kim & Cindy Risen's residence in Tamarack, MN * A Fisher ran across Hwy 210 at dawn near Tamarack. Hawk Owl on CR 18 ( previously reported ) St. Louis County - Sax-Zim Bog Sharp-tailed Grouse flying along CR 7 in front of Eveleth Mining Plant. Hawk Owl on CR 7 about a 1/2 mile north of CR 28 on the north end of the power line. Lake County - Stoney River Logging Road GREAT GRAY OWL ( finally !! ) at 4:20pm 7.6 miles north of the Whyte Rd hunting on both sides of the road. A very skittish owl. I and Ted watched the owl from inside the Yukon about 50 yards away and a once or twice I tried to creep towards it within 50 yards and the owl would fly up the road. So we let the owl be and let it hunt in peace. We turned around and headed home very happy to finally seeing this owl.
