This morning Randy Frederickson and I were trying to scour up a Blue Grosbeak in southern Kandiyohi County and instead we ended up finding a Swainson's Hawk circling over a fresh-cut hayfield on the south side of MN Hwy. 7 about 1.5 miles west of U.S. Hwy. 71. It continued circling and flying to the south.
Randy said this is only the fourth or fifth one he's seen in the county. eBird checklist with photos: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S19285136 Josh Wallestad http://www.aboywhocriedheron.com ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
