Our Son has been in the hospital for close to three weeks now so my Husband,
Kevin, and I haven't had many opportunities to go birding. Today, however,
I treated myself to that and took along my camera. I got a Life Bird!!!! I
found two Loggerhead Shrikes on 180th Street (Dakota County) one-half mile
east of Fisher. They were on power lines in front of a house (5990 180th
Street). I am not an experienced birder but I am wondering if there was a
nest in one of their deciduous trees because I heard what sounded like baby
birds and one of the Shrikes kept flying into that tree but didn't stay for
very long. I did get A LOT of photos but it may be a while before I'll be
able to find time to post them on to my website. I'll let everyone know
when I do.
I also saw a number of Dickcissels along the road leading to Spring Lake
Park (Dakota County).
