Re: [mou-net] Saturday May 12 Old Cedar Bridge

2012-05-13 Thread Warren Woessner
I had a similar experience birding at Veteran's Park in Richfield and at Wood 
Lake Sat AM. Vet's Park yielded only a Gray Cheeked Thrush aad Least Flycatcher 
(and dozens of singing Tenn's, Yellows and a Redstart. Wood Lake had a couple 
of Yellow Rumps and a lone Wilson's. Not quiet what with all the Orioles and 
Tenn's but little else to see (or hear)

I spent an hour down by the Minnesota River in Bloomington yesterday morning 
and saw very little. Either the warbler flight has peaked or the weather was 
too nice. Try a rainy day.

Once that green curtain so tightly is drawn, 
So that only the patient or lucky may see:
You know that they're there
And too soon will be gone,
So heed more to the sound and less to the feather
Of those birds so well hidden or sing, Woe is me. 

Hang in there and do the best that you can. I guess if we continue to have such 
springs, we'll need spy cameras in the canopy to know who's passing by.

[mou-net] Saturday, March 17, 82 degrees!

2012-03-17 Thread roy zimmerman
I spent a few hours today at Wild River State Park in Chisago County.  When I 
arrived at the visitor center, there was a noisy red-shouldered hawk soaring 
low over the parking lot.  I had to wait an hour but the the Carolina wren 
finally made an appearance giving a nice look.  Lots of fox sparrows plus 
juncos, tree sparrows, song sparrows, bluebirds, waxwings and two eagles on the 
nest at the river.  28 species in 3 hours.

[mou-net] Saturday birding frustration

2011-10-01 Thread Brian Wisconsin
Started the day out at Old Cedar Bridge.  Saw nothing new or exciting.  
Yesterday someone reported seeing kinglets, grebes, Nelsons Sparrow and a dozen 
different warblers.

Then went to Veterans Memorial Park in Richfield and again saw nothing much.  
Leaving the park I get a needs alert posted by a guy who'd been there an hour 
earlier who saw kinglets, grebes, a yellow-bellied sapsucker and a passenger 
pigeon.  

Clearly I've taken a step back in my birding career as I am seeing absolutely 
nothing new any more.

Ugh!

Brian

Point.  Since there is very little if no interest in this field trip I am 
cancelling it.  I'll be leaf watching along the north shore instead with Monica.

I just read Mike's email canceling the gull watch in Duluth on Saturday. 

I may go anyway.  I understand there have been Lesser black backed gulls in 
Duluth. 

 I will be leaving the TC at about 5 am Saturday; if anyone wants to go please 
contact me and we can arrange car pooling.

Just a reminder to those who have signed up for Saturday's MOU Trip along Mille 
Lacs Lake:

We will meet at 7:30 AM at the Dairy Queen on 169 in Onamia.  I anticipate 
birding the west side of Mille Lacs Lake, perhaps covering 1-2 other locations 
nearby depending upon time.  Study your loons!

This trip is currently full.

Thanks!

A few singing Tenneesses
One Blackburnian
One Chestnut-sided
One Magnolia
Two Yellow-rumps

Sand Point:
One Red-start
One Yellow
Two singing Prothonotary

Frontenac State Park:
Nothing at the picnic ground and nothing in the campground for warblers.

A long day and not much to show for it other than the Black-bellied Plover at

[mou-net] Saturday Birding

2009-08-31 Thread Nicholas Tangen
On Saturday Kristin Snobeck and I went down to the Old Cedar Bridge and I had a 
pretty good day. Once again we saw the young white tailed deer off the 
boardwalk and Kristin got some pretty good pictures. We also found a snapping 
turtle about the size of a quarter struggling to make it to the water. 
Birds seen:
Green Heron
RT Hummingbird
Pied Billed Grebe
Common Yellowthroat
American Redstart
Blue Gray Gnatcatcher
E Phoebe
Northern Shoveler
Killdeer
Cedar Waxwing
Turkey Vulture
Bald Eagle
Loads of Great Crested Cormorants

Nothing terribly exciting but a very fun day.

[mou-net] Saturday Hok-si-lah Warbler bird hike

2009-05-07 Thread Steve Weston
I am leading the annual MRVAC warbler field trip to Hok-si-lah and Frontinac 
this Saturday.  We are meeting at the Hok-si-lah parking lot at 7:30am.  
Hok-si-lah is a Lake City park on the Mississippi River about an hour plus a 
little south of the Twin Cities.  The paths are wide and easily accomodate a 
group.  It is open to non-members and is free.  There is no reason to call to 
check unless you need directions.  Bring a picnic lunch.  There should be 
enough birding trails to last until the last birders put down their binocs.   
It looks like it will be a good warbler hike.
