Hi All-- Yesterday evening I banded a Pine Siskin here in Northfield. The bird had a well-developed brood patch. (Siskins have been common this winter in Northfield.)
Also yesterday our neighbor raked her forest leaves and uncovered her patch of Siberian Squill, with many budding and some flowering. A photo of this first flower of the spring is on my blog: http://dantallmansbirdblog.blogspot.com dan -- Dan or Erika Tallman Northfield, Minnesota http://sites.google.com/site/tallmanorum http://dantallmansbirdblog.blogspot.com http://picasaweb.google.com/danerika [email protected] ".... the best shod travel with wet feet" "Beware of all enterprises that require new clothes ...."--Thoreau ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
