This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, February 17th.
As of February 13th, the gray-morph GYRFALCON was still in Dakota
County near the junction of Dakota County Road 42 and state highway
55.
GREAT GRAY OWLS and NORTHERN HAWK OWLS are still easy to find across
northern Minnesota, and northern Aitkin County appears to be the best
place to look. Two places to check would be Aitkin County Road 16
south of the town of Tamarack, and Aitkin County Road 4 west of state
highway 65.
A Great Gray Owl was reported from Brooklyn Park, Hennepin County, on
the 12th. It was seen along Edinbrook Terrace between Regent Avenue
and Zane Avenue North. On the 17th, what was presumably the same bird
was reported just northwest of here along the entry road to Oak Grove
Park.
The two HARLEQUIN DUCKS are still at Agate Bay in Two Harbors, Lake
County, and the TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE was still present at 40th East
and Cooke Street in Duluth on the 13th.
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 us at
mou@cbs.umn.edu 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
organization's free e-mail listservice, which is available to anyone
interested. For information visit our web site at
http://www.cbs.umn.edu/~mou/listservice.html.
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, November 24th.
