In response to the person that observed copulation behavior with Bald Eagles
in White Bear...
I observed similar behavior with a pair of Bald Eagles in Edina last week, tho
it
was not a successful copulation, only an attempt by the male which was
refused by the female. Its courting season!
Thanks to everyone for your help; I should have realized there would be such a
nice web site for this. It makes me happy that there is such data being
gathered in this efficient way. Conservationist are making a difference!

Pat, THANK YOU!! For taking the time and effort to check the bird and to report
the band. I have adopted 72 birds of various species at Hawk Ridge so I have a
vested interest in what happened to the birds I've adopted and finding out what

crows flying in formation and doing some acrobatics. I thought
perhaps they were practicing for the Thunderbirds. Seems early and
cold, but maybe it is getting time for Cupid.

were a number of other interesting species in the area as follows:
The recent arrival of The Loon in my mailbox reminded me of a quandary:
Log my Minnesota bird sightings using ebird or MOU Submit Sightings?
I'd be interested to hear others' opinions and knowledge about how the
databases intersect and are (or are not) shared.
For example, does MOU integrate

Two adult Barrow's Goldeneyes were present at Camp Lacupolis late this AM. For
just 15 seconds the two birds were together in the scope at the same time and
then one dove and we were unable to see two at the same time again due to the
shifting directions they were going, the constant diving,
The answer to Diana's question is a bit complicated.
The MOU offered MOU data to eBird a few years ago, but the data we collected
was not easily used by them. Similarly, eBird data was not complete enough to
work for the MOU at that time.
Since then, both the MOU and eBird have increased the
