[mou-net] Townsend's Solitaire, Duluth Township

2015-03-12 Thread Jim Lind
This morning there was a Townsend's Solitaire in Duluth Township 
along the West Knife River Road (CR 231), 0.7 mile west of the 
northern end of the Homestead Road (CR 42).  It flew in from the 
east, so it would be worth checking the area around the Homestead 
Road, too.  

Most of the West Knife River Road in this area is lined with invasive 
buckthorn, which the solitaire was seen feeding on.  Bohemian 
Waxwings were seen in this area earlier in the winter, but I have not 
heard any reports in the past three weeks.

[mou-net] Townsend's Solitaire Duluth

2014-12-21 Thread sparky stensaas
Hi all,
Tim Bates found a Townsend's Solitaire during the Duluth CBC yesterday (Tim is 
a Townsend's Solitaire/Varied Thrush magnet!)

It was between 4059 and 4066 Nelson Rd on the south side feeding on sparse 
crabapples in front of a blue trailer home.

The bird would also disappear for stretches back in the spruces and pines on 
the south side.

Nelson Road is an E-W road between Howard Gnesen Rd and Arnold Rd north of 
Martin Rd (north of Duluth)


Be aware that the blue mobile home is right near the road, so please respect 
the owners and don't walk on their land.

Good luck!

[mou-net] Townsend's Solitaire, Duluth

2009-01-03 Thread Peder Svingen
This morning (before the storm) I found a Townsend's Solitaire near  
the junction of London Road and Superior Street, Duluth. The bird was  
seen in front of the Yorkleigh apartment building and also across  
London Road near the pedestrian entrance to Leif Erickson Park. This  
is the same location where a solitaire was seen last January.

[mou-net] Townsend's Solitaire (Duluth)

2008-12-25 Thread Brad Snelling
Found at about 1:00 p.m. near the Hartley Nature Center. It perched from 
several trees near the visitors' center before flying in the direction of the 
reservoir. There was also a small flock of White-winged crossbills which could 
be seen/heard near the parking area by the center.
