This is the Northwest Minnesota Birding Report for Friday, July 29,
2005, sponsored by the Detroit Lakes Regional Chamber of Commerce. You
may also hear this report by calling (218) 847-5743 or 1-800-433-1888.

There has been relief from the heat this week, and both birds and humans
are more active. Many young birds are learning songs so the songs you
hear are not always easy to recognize, and they are interspersed with
the begging calls of young birds still in the nest. Apparently, there is
much second nesting this year as numerous species are defending nest
sites at this time. Prairies are wonderful places to visit as the
wildflowers are nearing peak color now.

In Otter Tail County, Jeff Schultz found a pair of EURASIAN
COLLARED-DOVES in the town of Ottertail on July 24. This is a small
town, so you should have no problem in finding them. Look especially in
the vicinity of Lake Boulevard.

Cliff Steinhauer heard from a friend in Swift, Roseau County,  that a
TURKEY VULTURE nest with two chicks has been found in the old depot .
Also in Roseau County, Melanie Torkelson reported that seven TRUMPETER
SWANS are being seen in the northwest corner of Pool 2 at the Roseau
River WMA.

Cliff Steinhauer  reported that RED-HEADED WOODPECKERS have been around
all summer at the Harold Halvorson residence in southern Marshall County
along 150 St. NE.

In Beltrami County, Pat DeWenter counted 125 BONAPARTE'S GULLS on Lake
Bemidji on July 27. She also reported that a family of five PILEATED
WOODPECKERS is coming to their feeders, where they are teaching the
young how to find "fast food".

Nathaniel Emery reporting from Polk County saw a GREEN HERON in
Crookston flying over the Highland Baseball fields on July 26. At the
Crookston wastewater treatment ponds a WILLET was observed. On July 27,
seven species of shorebirds were seen including KILLDEER, LESSER
YELLOWLEGS, SOLITARY SANDPIPER, SPOTTED SANDPIPER, LEAST SANDPIPER,
SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER, and WILSON'S PHALAROPE. More than 30 DICKCISSELS
were counted at Glacial Ridge NWR on July 26, and several MARBLED
GODWITS were seen there also. A NELSON'S SHARP-TAILED SPARROW continues
to sing on the property.

Thanks to Nathaniel Emery, Jeff Schultz, Cliff Steinhauer, Melanie
Torkelson, and Pat DeWenter for their reports.
