So I am up in International Falls this weekend and I notice yesterday 
morning that there were some black-billed magpies at the place I was 
staying. I have heard of them being in the state during the winter, but 
during the summer? I looked at all the range maps I could find and 
noticed they are located in northwestern corner of the state, so I would 
assume this to be unusual for MN. I also went to look for them yesterday 
afternoon and noticed there are at least 4 of them if not more.  So is 
this unusual ?
