[mou] 4 Eurasian Collared-Doves, Blue Earth County

[rdunlap at gac.edu]

This afternoon I found 4 Eurasian Collared-Doves in the town of  
Mapleton in southern Blue Earth County. Two of the birds were just  
north of town in a yard on the west side of Hwy. 22, while two more  
were perched on the powerlines along CR 7 near its intersection with  
Hwy. 22, still on the north side of town. Last fall I found one ECD in  
this same area, so it seems that this is becoming a regular location  
for this species.

Also had at least one Brewer's Blackbird in addition to all the Rusty  
Blackbirds, cowbirds, and grackles. Usually I miss the overlap time  
between Brewer's and Rusty Blackbirds, so it was a nice treat to  
compare the two in close proximity.
