I spent the afternoon/evening birding western Carver County with Rick =
Hoyme. We had pretty good birding. Highlights:
-Prothonotary Warbler (trail going east off Cnty. Rd. 40 half a mile =
east of its junction with Hwy. 25)
-American Bittern (north end of Tiger Lake near closed boat access)
-Orchard Oriole (immature male singing near intersection of Cnty. Rds. =
135 and 32.
-Virginia Rail (marsh/ponds along Vega Ave.)
In Sibley County along Hwy. 25 (northeast part of county) we stopped and =
checked out Washington Lake. Here were:
-Western Grebes (many)
-Eared Grebes (many)
-Red-necked Grebes (a few)
-Ruddy Ducks (many)
-Redheads (a few)
-Black and Forster's Terns
Good birding!
