This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday October 26th 2006.

On October 22nd, Bob Dunlap and Ben Fritchman found a CALIFORNIA GULL at
the Clay County Sanitary Landfill near the town of Hawley. Hawley is
located on U.S. Highway 10 at the junction of Clay County Road 33. Go
west on U.S. 10 from Hawley to 190th Street and turn south. Drive about
two and a half miles to the dump on the west side of the road.

Bob Williams found a PLEGADIS IBIS on the 22nd on the east side of Lake
Johanna Waterfowl Production Area in southeastern Pope County. The
location was about three miles west / southwest of the town of Brooten
(which is in Stearns County), on the west side of Pope County Road 37,
half a mile south of County Road 8.

In the past several days, at least two AMERICAN THREE-TOED WOODPECKERS
and six BLACK-BACKED WOODPECKERS have been reported in the vicinity of
Lighthouse Point in Two Harbors, Lake County.

John Latimer has reported seeing a CAROLINA WREN in Grand Rapids several
times over the last few weeks, with the last sighting being on the 19th.
The location is along the north shore of Pokegama Lake at the 24000
block of Itasca County Road 76.

A MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRD has been at Bayfront Park in Duluth since the 17th.

On the 24th, Jim Lind found a TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE in Knife River, Lake
County, across the road from Emily's Restaurant. Ann Russ found another
at the Temperence River State Park in Cook County on the 22nd, Chris
Benson found a Townsend's Solitaire at the ball fields of Park Point in
Duluth on the 21st, and Cindy Risen reported one on the 26th about half
a mile south of Eddy's Resort on Mille Lacs County Road 35. This last
bird may be the same individual that was reported on the 12th near the
town of Wahkon.

A late EASTERN MEADOWLARK was heard singing by Julie Brophy in Carver
Park Reserve in Hennepin County on the 15th. I also have a few reports
of NORTHERN SHRIKE, ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, and COMMON REDPOLL.

The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, November 2nd 2006.
