[mou] Spotted Towhee near Cook, St. Louis County

[Jim Lind]

Today I received a report of a Spotted Towhee that has been coming 
daily to a feeder near Cook, in northern St. Louis County since 
before Thanksgiving.  Print photos were taken of the bird in January 
and were apparently mailed to Bob Janssen this week, who confirmed 
the ID today.

The homeowners are very open to having visitors, but they would like 
people to call ahead of time.  The bird is not visible from the road 
and has to be viewed from inside the house.  Their names are Cedric 
and Eunice Roivanen and their phone # is 218-666-5318.  They are 
about a mile and a half west of Cook, at 9774 Wein Road (CR 500).

This is within 10 miles of the Northern Hawk Owls that have recently 
been seen near MN Hwy 73.
