[mou] Black-throated Blue in Duluth

[Kim R Eckert]

I found a singing male Black-throated Blue Warbler yesterday, June 17, 
at Hartley Field in Duluth.

To reach this location: from the jct of Arrowhead Rd and Woodland Ave, 
go W on Arrowhead to the first stoplight at Hartley Rd; turn right on 
Hartley Rd and follow it as it curves left and dead-ends at the 
entrance to the Hartley Field ski trails; walk about 400 yards on the 
main trail (i.e., the old road) and listen along the right side of the 
trail.

This is the first time I have ever seen a Black-throated Blue during 
the breeding season in Duluth, or in St Louis Co for that matter, 
although I am aware that Dave Grosshuesch found one a few years ago in 
the county several miles northeast of Duluth.
