Saturday:
The Lake Superior boat trip was a lot of fun despite not seeing any =
jaegers. We did enjoy some wonderful weather, calm waters, hordes of =
Herring & Ring-billed Gulls following us all day eating popcorn. Several =
Bonaparte's Gulls flew around the vessel and the most surprising was =
spotting a immature Peregrine Falcon flying over the boat when we were =
approximately 3 miles off the northshore and 8 miles east of Park Point. =
We also had some great views of Common Loons and some distant views of =
Horned Grebes. I did get a call from Peder Svingen about the Pomarine =
Jaeger and Red-throated loons and we were within 10 minutes from the =
jaeger sighting but we could not relocate the jaeger. This trip was the =
final trip for the 2006 season and the LL Smith is currently docked for =
the winter. I will be scheduling 4 lake superior trips for the 2007 =
season. I will be offering a trip in May, two in September and one in =
October.=20
Sunday:
Coming home from Church I saw a Gray Jay along Commonwealth Avenue which =
is unusual sighting for this area and this evening I had another Gray =
Jay fly over my house! While sitting outside and enjoying the sunset a =
Saw Whet Owl was singing across Grand Avenue behind the Forest Service =
Building in upper Smithville. =20
Good birding
