Re: [mou-net] Mpls. Oak Savanna Birds and a Goose Question

Peter et al., The softer honking you're hearing at night is likely Tundra Swans. Snow Geese have a sort of yelping honk, while Tundra Swans give a soft honk that sounds a lot like a goose. The swans are moving through in big numbers right now, and they often fly in noisy small flocks at night.

[mou-net] Mpls. Oak Savanna Birds and a Goose Question

At noon, Mpls. Mississippi River Oak Savanna (West River Road and 36Th Avenue). Very windy, did not see much. Eastern Blue Bird, yea! Phoebe Brown Creeper Common Grackle Juncos, flocks of them all week. Unfortunately a Coopers thinned the Junco flock by one in my yard this morning. Unfortunate
