2006 MOU Boat Trips on Lake Superior
---------------------------------------------

* Last year Tom Auer organized 2 boat trips last Fall and they were a =
huge success and the boats filled up FAST!  I talked to Dan Rau last =
Fall and he is eager to have birders use the UWS research vessel for =
organized boat trips on Lake Superior.  Capt. Dan will be taking =
reservations in January of 2006 for use of the boat.

* Here are the dates I am going after:
- June 3rd  I am excited about this for many reasons.  Red-throated =
Loons peak in migration around this time on Lake Superior and there is =
always the chance to pick up some other artic bound bird out on Lake =
Superior.

-September 9th Should be peak for terns/small gulls and possibly Sabine =
Gulls or a Artic Tern could be found on this trip.

September 23 With Hawk Ridge Weekend being that weekend as well as the =
Annual WSO (Wisconsin state bird club) trip to WI Pt.  It makes sense to =
offer a boat trip with so many birders around!

October 7th  Good time of the year to look for Red Phalaropes and other =
artic species.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Well there you have it!  I like to thank Kim Eckert who worked with me =
so our schedules did not conflict with each other to much.

If you are interested in the winter trip or any of the future trips let =
me know thru email ASAP.  I will make field trips announcements as dates =
approach if I am still looking for more participants.  I will cancel =
field trips if I get less then 7 participants. =20

** Do not make reservations for any of the boat trips!  I will make =
another announcement on boat trips as soon as the dates are confirm. I =
only listed the above dates so you know I had bird trips plan for June =
and September. **
