This morning I birded Beltrami Co., for several miles near my home (my e-bird patch). I finally am seeing and hearing the migrant passerines, many of whom will be nesting in the area. Below is a copy of the report I sent to e-bird.
The highlight for me was seeing 3 Harris' Sparrows in their spring plumage, which I don't see every year. I haven't been able to figure out how to export the e-bird report in order to send it to MOU. Any suggestions or directions would be appreciated.
