[mou] Painted Bunting in Lake County

[Jim Lind]

A male Painted Bunting has been seen and photographed coming to a 
feeder northeast of Silver Bay in Lake County since Saturday.  The 
homeowners are open to visitors, although they live on the lakeside 
of a narrow part of MN Highway 61.  Parking is impossible on the 
shoulder of the highway and there is room for only one or two 
vehicles in their driveway.  Visitors are urged to use caution when 
pulling into their driveway from the highway.

They are at 6420 Highway 61, which is approximately a half mile 
southwest of the intersection of Lake County Road 6 and Highway 61.  
Coming from the south it is about 6 miles northeast of MN Highway 1.

The feeders are on the the lakeside of the house.  The bird is very 
skittish and the homeowners said if they are home that visitors 
should knock on the front door that faces the driveway.  If they are 
not home, visitors should walk around the house on the highway side 
to view the feeders.  Please use caution and discretion if going to 
see this bird.
