Spent the day birding in Southern Minnesota with Conny Brunell and Susan
Schumacher. We tried the locations by Grover's Lake and Hyw 86 in Jackson County
without success for Great-tailed Grackles. But did turn up a few interesting
species on the way there and back. Here were some of the species that we
observed.
@ Great Blue Heron - Rice County - Well's Lake
@ Greater White-fronted Goose - Faribault County - Pihl's County Park,
Jackson County - Hyw 86, 1/2 mile south of I 90, Cottonwood County - Mountain Lake,
in the town of Mountain Lake
@ Snow Goose - Jackson County - Hyw 86, 1/2 mile south of I 90
@ Ross's Goose - Cottonwood County - Mountain Lake - a single bird was
observed with the flock of Greater White-fronted and Canada Geese resting on the
lake.
@ Merlin - Jackson County - A single Female Prairie Race (Richardson's)
Merlin was observed sitting on a fence post along an unmarked road, several miles
North of the town of Jackson.
@ Red-breasted Nuthatch - Brown County - Cemetery on West side of New Ulm
@ Lapland Longspur - Jackson County - numerous flocks observed in the Eastern
portion of the county.
@ Common Redpoll - Brown County - Cemetery on West side of New Ulm
@ Pine Sisken - Brown County - Cemetery on West side of New Ulm
