Anthony and all, It is sad to note that so few of the birds a person might wish to see in Minnesota at this time of year are either gone or not being reported. We were hoping to attend the Sax-Zim Bog festival but it looks kind of dismal at this point. Maybe next year will be better. Thanks for letting us know about the few birds that are being seen and reported. God Bless,
