Thursday evening there was a Great Gray prrched on a powerpole next to MN 72 7 miles north of Kelliher. I believe there were reports of this species posted in that area earlier, this maybe the same bird.
A couple hours before I encountered a Spruce Grouse on the Rapid River Road not far from Oaks Corner in Beltrami Island State Forest. I encountered one near the same location last year. I spent a day in the Bog and encountered all the generally sought after and expected boreal species except Black Backed Woodpecker, incldung being scolded by a pair of Boreal Chickadees.
