Tuesday:

Red-shouldered Hawk (immature)  seen in Dakota Co. on Hwy 55 just west of 
CR42 (west),  Same hawk was seen about a month ago just a few hundred yards 
to the east.  From the back this bird looks just like a Red-tailed Hawk, but 
in the front the streaking is almost uniform from the chest down.  This bird 
likes to perch on the wire, rather than the poles.

Wild Turkey (large tom) seen flying across Hwy 52 near 117th Street.
