Vic Lewis and I birded this morning for a couple of hours at Sucker Lake north of St. Paul and at the exposed shore on the north side of White Bear Lake.
We had 53 species total including 9 warblers: lots of Tennessee and Nashville warblers plus chestnut-sided, black-and-white, bay-breasted, American redstart, ovenbird, palm, and black-throated green. (Other warblers I have seen during the past week at Sucker Lake: common yellowthroat, yellow-rumped, blackpoll). We also had resident red-breasted nuthatches, brown thrasher, lots of catbirds, several rose-breasted grosbeaks including one male, ruby-crowned kinglets, numerous hummingbirds, blue-headed vireo. We had Lincoln's, white-throated, song, swamp sparrows. At White Bear Lake we only saw several killdeers plus one cooperative, female black-bellied plover. ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
