My wife (Mary) and I left Apple Valley yesterday morning and drove to =
Treasure Island Casino. Saw several eagles at the creek around the =
intersection, but no eagle in the nest. Went to Covill Park in Redwing =
and was the usual, lot of eagles, mallards and geese but no eagles in =
the nests. Drove to Winona. On the way saw many eagles, red tails etc. =
along with empty eagle nests.. Found something different. 3 pure white =
ducks in with a small flock of mallards near Reads Landing on 61 south. =
They appear to be albino mallards. Mary took a good picture of two of =
them if anybody would be interested in helping us identify them for =
sure.=20
Crossed into WI. Headed north on 35. Again lots of eagles and empty =
nests. Saw a blue bird in Buffalo near the river on county rd O. There =
is a historical marker a few miles south of Bay City. It's for Lake =
Pepin. Two tenths of a mile south of the marker is an eagles nest. Very =
hard to see going south. An eagle was in the nest. One mile south of the =
marker is the best site. These are both on the river side of the road. =
Be careful, not a good place to stop due to traffic! Mary got a good =
picture of the nest and watching eyes of the parent if anyone is =
interested.
Also a horned lark just east of Farmington.
