This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday September 25th.
There was still at least one BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER at the 40th
Avenue West mud flats in Duluth on the 20th. Both AMERICAN
GOLDEN-PLOVER and WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER were also present there.
LEAST BITTERNS were seen at the Old Cedar Avenue Bridge area of
Bloomington, Hennepin County on the 21st. And a male BLACK-THROATED
BLUE WARBLER was found along the bluff trail west of the parking lot.
It was seen from the first short bridge after the two long bridges.
Interesting was the immature FERRUGINOUS HAWK reported on the 24th
from east of Pine City in Pine County. The bird was at the junction
of Copper Canyon Road and Northern Road. This location is one mile
north of Pine County Road 8 and about two and a half miles east of
Cross lake.
An unidentified JAEGER was seen off Park Point in Duluth on the 24th.
Other migrants reported recently include WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW,
HARRIS'S SPARROW, LAPLAND LONGSPUR, and PURPLE FINCH.
This state-wide birding report is brought to you and financially
