Was out guiding 3 birders from Tennessee. We started the day in Sax Zim =
and then moved down to Tamarack, Mn and then back to Duluth.
-Gyr (grey morph adult) was located at 3:50pm on top of the cement tower =
across from the UPS building down in Port Terminal. I got several =
photos and will have them posted on my website under "recently seen". =
The Gyr then made a stoop and flew under the high bridge where there is =
some open water. Also before the sighting a large flock of Mallards =
were noticed flying from the High Bridge towards Canal Park. The Gyr =
must of spooked the ducks before landing on top of the cement tower.
-Hawk Owl Sax Zim Bog along Stone Lake Rd.
-Black-backed Woodpecker along McDavitt Rd. 2.5 miles north of Sax Rd =
(Co. Rd 28) on the east side along the logging road. The bird was a =
female.
-Snowy Owl south of Tamarack along Co. Rd 16. ( excellent photos )
-Gray Jays, Pine Grosbeaks, Evening Grosbeaks, Common Redpolls & =
Northern Shrikes
-Rough-legged Hawks (light and dark morphs) Sax Zim Bog.
* tried for Varied Thrush at UMD and failed in finding the bird* My =
group wants a rebate because they really wanted to see the Thrush and =
all I could find for them was a lousy Gyr.
