Question from around Virginia MN: where is Greenwood Lake? I wasn't aware there was any little lake of any name on Park Point, and spent some hours Saturday on the point spooking up Lapland longspurs by the tens and hundreds along the dunes, roadsides and ball field without seeing the Smiths'. Is the Greenwood Lake of the Smith's longspurs by any chance the one that's up Lake County Hwy. 2 north of Two Harbors or what am I missing? Thank you any and all.Tanya Beyer Hovi Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S7, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone -------- Original message --------From: "Law, Carolyn" <[email protected]> Date: 10/11/20 8:31 AM (GMT-06:00) To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mou-net] SMLO at Park Point. Thanks to everyone who responded to my questions about SMLO and LALO. And the location. I appreciate the clarifications. In part I also wanted clarification on the location as there was no city or county in the email about these birds. There could be more than one Park Point in the state of Minnesota but maybe not. Kindly list county or city in your postings.

There were many more Lapland Longspurs (2.2 seconds) there as well.On Wednesday, October 7, 75 Sandhill Cranes were reported heading southwest along the shore above Mt Josephine by Travis Novitsky, and120+ were seen passing over Silver Bay from Mount Trudee, by MarshaMoreen and Ken Larson.On 10/9/20, linda whyte <[email protected]> wrote:> They're "bird-bander speak" for Smith's Longspur and Lapland Longspur.> Linda Whyte>> On Fri, Oct 9, 2020, 10:24 AM Law, Carolyn <[email protected]> wrote:>>> Where is Park Place?
