Rusty Blackbird in Hennepin County
2011-10-29

Uncommon in Hennepin County in the Fall season

A rusty blackbird was feeding with the long-billed dowitchers today at the Bass Pond (MN Valley NWR) in Bloomington. Apparently he did not get much to eat because he didn't stay too long in the water. Later he was joined by another rusty blackbird in a tree at the edge of the water.
