[mou] Northern Mockingbird-Mower County

Sun Apr 20 09:27:15 CDT 2008

Northern Mockingbird was on CR-16, 1/4 mile east of CR-61 intersection near the in drive for the Akkermans (marked on mailbox) in their orchard.  This area is roughly directly north by a couple miles of the J.C. Hormel Nature Center.
Time was 8:10 am.  It also flew north of the road in a oak grove.

The wing and flight of this bird was extremely beautiful, in contrast to the overall "drab" appearance.

Cheers,
