Red-shouldered Hawk, Sherburne CR 1 & 87 marsh; Golden-crowned Kinglets, 
Refuge/Blue Hill Trail (over-wintering and over-summering for last three 
years in the conifers, hmmmm.....) - otherwise quiet in area.

Considering a Saturday AM trip either to Aitkin County or Black Dog area. 
Few questions:

* Attractions to Aitkin are the Varied Thrush, Three-toed and Black-backed 
Woodpeckers.  Any recent reports?

* Attraction to Black Dog is the Slaty-backed.  Again, any recent reports? 
Anything else in the area worth chasing?

Good birding to all.
