This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, June 10th.
A PAINTED BUNTING was reported on the 9th and again on the 10th
visiting the feeders of Pat and Rose Deutz, about five miles south
Marshall in Lyon County. Please call 507-532-2972 to arrange a visit.
There is a YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT being reported from Blue Hill Trail
at Sherburne NWA in Sherburne County. The chat is being found 1-2
minutes past the trail head on the left. Take U.S. Highway 169 to
county road 9 and turn west, passing the refuge headquarters. Blue
Hill Trail is about another mile west on the right.
I have a second-hand report of a WHITE-EYED VIREO seen near Buffalo
River State Park in Clay County on June 5th. No directions or other
information has been provided.
On June 5th, what may have been a SCISSOR-TAILED FLYCATCHER was seen
very briefly off St. Louis County Road 133 near the junction of
County Road 29 in the Sax-Zim Bog.
A couple of YELLOW RAILS were heard calling on June 3rd on the west
side of the big sedge marsh along state highway 70 about a mile east
of Washington County Road 3.
On the night of June 4th, a GREAT GRAY OWL was seen in Lutsen, Cook
County, at the home of Mary Brislance.
A NORTHERN MOCKINGBIRD was at the Spruce Creek area off state highway
61 in Cook County on the 3rd.
Somewhat north was the CERULEAN WARBLER reported June 8th at Snail
Lake Regional Park, near Shoreview, Ramsey County. From the parking
lot take the trail that passes beneath Snail Lake Boulevard and look
for the dirt trail on the right, opposite the small marsh.
And finally, MUTE SWANS have nested in Washington County at Big
Carnelian Lake north of Stillwater, though it is unlikely these are
wild birds.
This state-wide birding report is brought to you and financially
supported by the Minnesota Ornithologists' Union (MOU). The MOU is
Minnesota's oldest and largest bird club.
The report is composed from observations generously submitted by MOU
members and other birders throughout the state. You can support this
weekly update by submitting your bird reports to Anthony Hertzel at
axhertzel@sihope.com or by calling the hotline directly at
763-780-8890 and leaving a detailed message.
MOU members receive this report directly on MOU-net, the club's free
e-mail listservice, which is available to anyone interested. For
information contact David Cahlander at <david@cahlander.com>.
MOU members receive the organization's quarterly journal "The Loon"
and the bimonthly magazine, "Minnesota Birding". For membership
information, send an e-mail message to our membership secretary at
moumembers@yahoo.com.
In cooperation with the Minnesota Office of Tourism, highlights of
this hotline can be now heard at a toll free number which is
available to callers outside the Twin Cities area. The number is
1-800-657-3700.
The MOU is pleased to offer this service. Thank you, and good birding.
The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, June 17th.
