At about 8AM Friday Morning, I saw a Northern Mockingbird in the Weaver Dunes
area of Wabasha County. The bird was hanging around conifers along the south
side of the driveway at 61006 County Road 84, south of the McCarthy Lake
Wildlife Management Area. It did not vocalize, and flew back into the
property. The house is set back a ways from CR 84 and I did not talk to any
homeowners. Interestingly, my only other Wabasha Mockingbird came from about
100 yds. up CR 84 in May 2006.
No Bell's Vireos were detected yet, but a Loggerhead Shrike was working some
mullein stalks in the recently burned area adjacent to the traditional Bell's
Vireo thicket at McCarthy Lake WMA.
