This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, November 8th 2007.

The potential first state record INCA DOVE is still being seen in Two
Harbors, Lake County, as it has been every day since it was first
discovered on October 30th. The bird spends much of its time in the
backyard of the house at the southeastern corner of 3rd Street and 2nd
Avenue, but it has also been seen in most of the block's backyards west
of here. From state highway 61 in downtown Two Harbors, turn toward the
lake on 5th street. Drive to 2nd Avenue and turn left. The house is at
the corner of this avenue and 3rd Street.

Brian Smith found a PLEGADIS IBIS in a small pond about five miles south
of Sleepy Eye on November 1st. The pond is on the east side of highway
4, a fifth of a mile south of Brown County Road 22.

Al Schirmacher reported a RED-THROATED LOON at Garrison Bay of Mille
Lacs Lake in Crow Wing County on November 2nd.

Chet Meyers reported that on the 6th he found a first-year GLAUCOUS GULL
on the dock at the northwestern corner of Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis.

A female MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRD was at the Recreation Area of Park Point in
Duluth on the 2nd. Two were still present around the main parking lot on
the east side of the Grand Marais harbor in Cook County on the 3rd.

Nancy Jackson reported a TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE on October 31st in Hoyt
Lakes, St. Louis County, at the intersection of Kennedy and Dorchester
streets. Ben Yokel found another on November 3rd at Hawk Ridge in Duluth
along the road about a quarter of a mile west of the main overlook. And
Craig Mandel found one on the 6th a few miles north of Grand Marais at
1427 Croftville Road.

The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, November 15th 2007.
