I decided to head over to a spot that Julie Zempel had some luck with recently (ebird report). There are a pair of flooded fields to the north on 102nd St. on Co. Rd. 25 west of Waconia. The fields are obvious in the area as the best shorebird habitat. Today they only held a large number of

[mou-net] Summer Tanager/ Carleton College Upper Arboretum, Rice County

Late this afternoon today I saw the Summer Tanager that was previously reported. It was perched in a tree along the dirt trail, located above the bridge and stream. The bird’s multi-colors were stunning! As I walked toward the brook trail entrance, it perched briefly again, and flew. I did

Though others saw this bird yesterday morning at the site described and mapped earlier, it was also seen after the noon hour farther downstream, where the creek makes a sharp bend toward the two small lakes. Laura Coble and I started our walk from the north, on 19, taking the dirt path on the
