This is the Northwest Minnesota Birding Report for Wednesday, June 1
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.

Summer seems to have come now but started with cool rain. As of this
writing it feels like summer with more seasonal temperatures, and sounds
like summer as the resident species have returned, and we are seeing
fewer migrants. Will we still see the ones we have looked for all these
weeks, or did they pass us by altogether? Only time will tell.

I have no reports that indicate that the CINNAMON TEAL that was reported
in Mahnomen County on Friday has been seen since Saturday. I was unable
to find it on Monday afternoon. Both SAY'S PHOEBES were still present at
Felton Prairie in Clay County as of May 30 at the gravel pit where the
ROCK WREN is being seen.

Mary Broten reported a BLACK-HEADED GROSBEAK at her feeder in Marshall
County on May 29. She lives 12 miles N of Thief River Falls on Hwy 59
and 1/8 mile west then south down the drive way 1/4 mile.  Feeders are
on south side of the blue house.

In Kittson County, Kim Eckert's Minnesota Birding Weekend Reunion group
found GREEN HERON, COOPER'S HAWK, VIRGINIA RAIL, SORA, a pair of
RED-HEADED WOODPECKERS, OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER, ten species of warblers,
and ORCHARD ORIOLE among others.=20

The MBW group found lots of species in Marshall County on the weekend.
Some of them were COMMON LOON , LEAST BITTERN, BLACK-CROWNED
NIGHT-HERON, VIRGINIA RAIL, SORA, AMERICAN WOODCOCK, SHORT-EARED OWL,
WHIP-POOR-WILL, OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER, PHILADELPHIA VIREO, LE CONTE'S
SPARROW,  WHITE-THROATED SPARROW, and ORCHARD ORIOLE.=20

On her way to the Minnesota Birding Weekend, Nancy Jackson found three
HUDSONIAN GODWITS  in a field about three miles south of Thief River
Falls in Pennington County. Kim Eckert's group found several shorebirds
at the Thief River Falls wastewater treatment ponds on the weekend
including BLACK-BELLIED PLOVER, RUDDY TURNSTONE, SANDERLING,
WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER,  and both WILSON'S PHALAROPE, and  RED-NECKED
PHALAROPE. Flycatchers have returned to Pennington County as I heard
both EASTERN WOOD-PEWEE, and GREAT CRESTED FLYCATCHER in the yard on May
31. Bob Russell counted 3200 CLIFF SWALLOWS at the Thief River Falls
wastewater treatment ponds on May 26.

A LEAST BITTERN was reported in Polk County by Bob Russell  1.7 miles
west of Mentor along CR 45. The MBW group found  a YELLOW RAIL along MN
32 near the Dugdale WMA  on May 30. Another interesting species was the
NELSON'S SHARP-TAILED SPARROW found at Glacial Ridge NWR on May 30. The
bird was seen along the gravel road that leads south from the gravel
office on the left fork about a half mile from the office in the first
fenced pasture. Several GRASSHOPPER SPARROWS were found along a gravel
road that goes south of US 2 three miles west of MN 32.=20

On May 30, in Mahnomen County while looking for the cinnamon teal I
found a TRUMPETER SWAN, 6 COMMON LOONS, and a RED-NECKED GREBE.

Bob Russell found both PINE SISKIN and EVENING GROSBEAK in Becker County
this weekend along CR 113 in the northern part of the county. Sally
Hausken  reported 12 CATTLE EGRETS  in section 4 of Cormorant township
on May 27, and GREAT CRESTED FLYCATCHER, CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLER, and
INDIGO BUNTING on May 28.=20

At Felton Prairie, Clay County, on May 30, Joel Dunnette found a singing
BELL'S VIREO. Roland Jordahl  reported RED-BELLIED WOODPECKER,
RED-BREASTED NUTHATCH, BROWN THRASHER, and EASTERN MEADOWLARK at that
location on May 28. Connie Norheim found several species of warblers at
Gooseberry Park  on May 27 but could not relocate the Connecticut
Warbler that had been seen there earlier.

Heidi Ferguson found UPLAND SANDPIPER and MARBLED GODWITS in Wilkin
County on the weekend.

>From Otter Tail County, Connie Norheim reported COMMON NIGHTHAWKS at
Franklin Lake on May 30. Roland Jordahl observed SCARLET TANAGER, and
INDIGO BUNTING in that county on May 28.

Susan Wiste reported NORTHERN CARDINAL, and INDIGO BUNTING in Douglas
County on May 31.
