10/6/03

Spend most of the day birding in Kittson County today, but finished at the 
Warren Sewage Ponds in Marshall County.  Where I observed a single Immature or 
female Surf Scoter.  The Snow Geese are moving and were observed in about a 
dozen locations and I began to encounter my first flocks of Longspurs as well.  I 
began my day with a very cooperative Sharp-tailed Grouse along Hyw 59 at the 
intersection with Marshall County Road 5.

Here are some of the sightings from my day of birding in Kittson County.

@ Snow Goose
@ Surf Scoter
@ Ruffed Grouse - Twin Lakes WMA
@ Spotted Sandpiper - Karlstad Sewage Ponds
@ American Golden Plover - 100+ at the Hallock Sewage Ponds
@ Red-headed Woodpecker
@ Bohemian Waxwing - observed in 3 locations around the town of Karlstad
@ American Pipit - small numbers observed at most of the sewage ponds I 
visited
@ American Tree Sparrow - A single bird was observed at the Kennedy Cemetery
