This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday November 30th 2006.
On the 29th, Mike Schrage reported three GRAY-CROWNED ROSY-FINCHES in
Cloquet, St. Louis County. Directions from interstate 35 take the
Cloquet/Iron Range exit and go north on state highway 33 to the second
stoplight in Cloquet. Turn left onto County Road 7 (also called Big Lake
Road) and go about three miles to the intersection with County Road 5.
Turn left onto University Road and go about 100 yards. Look for the blue
building on the left. This is the Fond du Lac Resource Management
Division office. The birds have been on the sunflowers on the right side
of the building. This is a working office building so birders are asked
to please stay in their cars and remain at least 75 feet from the birds.
On November 24th, Patrick Beauzay found a SNOWY OWL along Hubbard County
Road 20 about a half mile south of its junction with County Road 17.
Stan Wood reported a SNOWY OWL near Pool 2 in the Roseau River WMA in
Roseau County on November 25th.
Bill Buins still has a CAROLINA WREN at his feeder in Rochester, Olmsted
County. It seems to visit only occasionally, but was reported as
recently as the 30th.
A VARIED THRUSH was reported on November 28th from the Kenwood
neighborhood of Duluth, though it has been seen since at least the 18th.
The feeder is in the front yard and is visible from the street at 1807
McFarlane Road.
Finally, a few callers have reported COMMON REDPOLLS at their feeders,
some as far south as the Twin Cities area.
The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, December 7th 2006.
