Subject: [mou] Closing Website

This is to let everyone know that within the next few days I will be 
shutting my website (http://www.greensphotoimages.com) down. The primary 
reason is due to a medical issue with my hands. Without boring you with 
all the details, it is a degenerative nerve condition that Mayo and 
other specialists admittedly cannot do anything about other than use 
medication to help manage the pain. So, after much wrestling and 
waffling. I decided to eliminate the website because it was the most 
demanding and the least necessary. In conclusion, and in brief, I would 
like to share with you the following reasons for sending this email:

1) As a courtesy and to avoid unnecessary confusion for anyone 
attempting to visit my site. Since I receive many emails from MOU and 
MNBIRD members after each posting of images, I thought it would be 
appropriate to let you know, that is those interested.

2) Even though I will not be maintaining a website, I will be actively 
and frequently pursuing  my love of bird photography. I will also 
continue to share my images at no charge to non profit organizations 
(e.g. MOU, etc.) for educational purposes. For inquiries, please email 
me (see address provided below).

3) I will be sending out a small sampling of the best images from each 
new batch that I process. I will keep the lot size to around 4 or 5 
images and sized appropriately for email. The file overhead should be 
manageable by most ISP's. So, if you are interested in being on the 
distribution list, send me your email address.

4) I want to thank all of you who have visited my site and provided 
great feedback and encouragement via email. Many thanks go to those 
especially who have helped me with Id'ing various birds and wildlife 
prior to posting, as well as recommended corrections after.

Again, thanks to everyone who has visited my site.

A Minnesota Birding Weekend trip was held in Cass

Deep Portage Learning Center serving as a base.  133
species were detected over the 2.5 days.  Highlights
included:

Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow - Boy River & Swamp Lake
Yellow Rail - Swamp Lake
Yellow-billed Cuckoo - Red River Tr. near 53rd ave
Tennessee Warbler - Cass 135 bog
Grasshopper Sparrow - Cass 45 near MN 371
Red-headed Woodpecker - Cass 26, 2 mi N of Cass 28
Merlin - at Deep Portage Learning Center
Whip-poor-will - at Deep Portage remote classroom
Red-necked Grebe - nesting birds at Cat Lake
Dickcissel - Cass 45 near MN 371; Cat Lake

18 warblers and 10 sparrows along with great looks at
many resident species made for a great couple days of
birding.  Special thanks to Craig Mandel for leading
the crew and describing so well where the darn bird
was in the darn tree.  Thanks to all participants!

Subject: [mou] Area Shorebirds + (no rarities)

Pursuant to Ken LaFond's Carlos Avery post, checked our area sewage ponds 
this morning (Princeton, Milaca, Gilman, Foley) - migration has certainly 
begun, seven species seen (nothing distinctive, many SP Sandpipers and 
Lesser Yellowlegs).

Also walked the entire Blue Hill Trail in Sherburne (4+ miles, usually only 
do the front loop - back area is breathtaking) and drove through the Auto 
Tour (latter yesterday AM) - while singing and sighted species numbers are 
still good, they are gradually diminishing (eg, no Golden-winged or 
Blue-winged heard, although Mourning still actively singing).

Did have a Broad-winged (perhaps two) near Milaca ponds, have just frequent 
enough sightings/hearings there that one wonders about nesting.

Have a blessed Fourth!

PS With significant assistance from Julian Sellers and others, have 
concluded that I simply ran into a rather dark/seemingly large Lincoln's 
Sparrow in Aitkin County last Saturday (visual angle is everything) - thanks

for all the help (you're a great group!) - although a percentage of my heart

would still love the bird to have been a female LABU.
