On Jan. 17 - 19, Ernie Lewis, Bob Janssen and I went on a birding trip to  NW 
Minnesota.  We found Great Gray Owls in several locations; four Great  Gray 
Owls within about 2 miles of each other on the Hubbard & Cass Co. lines  (Jan 
17, about 10:00 am), along Hiway 64 & 87, we also found a Northern Hawk  Owl in 
this same vicinity; we found 3 Great Gray Owls around the intersection  of 
Hiway 71 & 113 in Hubbard and Becker Co. (Jan. 19, about 11:30 am),  we refound 
the Great Gray Owl along Hiway 200 in Mahnomen Co. (Jan 17, 2:00  pm) and we 
found one dead Great Gray Owl along Hiway 59 in Marshall Co.  (Mile post 375).  
We also saw the Northern Hawk Owl reported  from Norman Co. at the 
intersection of Hiway 32 and 200.
 
We also saw Sharp-tailed Grouse in Marshall Co., Greater  Prairie-Chickens in 
Polk & Norman Co. and Northern Shrikes in Kittson,  Marshall, and Norman Co.  
We saw Pine Grosbeaks and one Rough-legged Hawk  in Mahnomen Co. and a 
Northern Goshawk in Becker Co., along Hiway  113.
 
We saw a total of 44 species on our 3 day trip.
