Re: [mou-net] Snipe? downtown MPLS
I just want to say thanks much to Joanna for the details on d-bird and related, Elizabeth for the d-bird link in the first place, and Tami for fixing my mis-id on the woodcock - MOU (you all) comes through again! Passing this on back to MOU because I know, for sure, that there are few others out there that can use the d-bird info. - Tim On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 9:26 PM, wrote: > Hi all – > > Elizabeth – thanks for connecting me on this message.

Re: [mou-net] Snipe? downtown MPLS
Tim: I think most of us are interested in reading about birds that pass through the city. You can enter that info on a dead bird database called https://d-bird.org I worked on joanna eckles lights out project for years in Minneapolis and we had woodcocks, long eared owl and Virginia rail to name some unusual ones.

Re: [mou-net] Snipe? downtown MPLS
Tim, thanks for reporting it. The group is called Project Birdsafe. They're through Audubon: http://mn.audubon.org/birdsafe I'm guessing it's a woodcock (if you want to compare your image w/Sibley). They're migrating through in mass numbers right now and fly incredibly low to the ground. We've admitted 8 in the last 3 days.

[mou-net] Snipe? downtown MPLS
If I recall correctly, there is a group who keeps tab on birds killed in building collisions in downtown Minneapolis. There was a snipe(?) on the sidewalk between Candyland and Bombay Palace on 7th st. yesterday at around 3:20pm. I have a picture if anyone is interested. Also, what is the suggested way of reporting such random sightings without involving the whole list (if reporting is, indeed, useful or desired)?
