A late WESTERN GREBE was on Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis, Hennepin
County, on the 16th.
At Canal Park in Duluth, the two previously-reported HARLEQUIN DUCKS
were still present on the 16th near the south breakwall. Also present
was a first-winter GREAT BLACK-BACKED GULL, a first-winter GLAUCOUS
GULL, and an adult THAYER'S GULL.
Warren Nelson reports a SNOWY OWL was seen on the 14th about eight miles
north of Aitkin along Aitkin County Road 1. A NORTHERN HAWK OWL was also
along Aitkin County Road 1 on the 12th.
On the 14th, Jim Mattsson found BLACK-BELLIED PLOVER, AMERICAN
GOLDEN-PLOVER, DUNLIN, PECTORAL SANDPIPER, and WILSON'S SNIPE, all at
the western end of Lake Byllesby in Goodhue County.
On the 16th, Bill Buins reported two CAROLINA WRENS at his feeder in
Rochester, Olmsted County. Another was on the western shore of Lotus
Lake in Chanhassen, Carver County on the 12th and again on the 16th.
Check especially along Hopi Road.
At Park Point in Duluth, a TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE was in the crabapple
trees about 150 yards south of 43rd Street. Another was still in Two
Harbors, Lake County, on the 11th near the lighthouse.
A male VARIED THRUSH was in Bob Ekblad's yard in Byron, Olmsted County
on the 15th. On the 12th, Bruce Perry had a Varied Thrush at his home in
Andover, along Anoka County Road 7 just north of 173rd Avenue.
Finally, a KRIDER'S RED-TAILED HAWK has been reported by several
observers at the Black Dog Road exit off of 35W in Burnsville. A few
SANDHILL CRANES were in the Weaver Bottoms in Wabasha County on the
11th. And a very late BALTIMORE ORIOLE was at Bill Kass's feeder in
Rochester on the 13th.
The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, November 23rd 2006.
