This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, February 7th 2008.

On the 2nd, an adult male BARROW'S GOLDENEYE was at the far eastern end
of Lake Pepin in Wabasha County, and on the two birds were present.

A SNOWY OWL is still at the Minneapolis / St. Paul airport and is best
looked-for from the southwest corner of the Glycol recycling building,
which is the first building on the left when exiting the first tunnel on
Cargo Road. Two SNOWY OWLS were in Aitkin County on the 7th. One was
near the junction of state highway 210 and 370th Lane, and the other was
on county road 1 just east of county road 22. And a SNOWY OWL has been
seen in southeastern Kandiyohi County for about a week. It was
originally seen at the intersection of state highway 7 and Kandiyohi
County Road 2, but has recently been reported one mile south and half a
mile east of here.

A NORTHERN HAWK OWL is still in the Sax Zim Bog, on the west side of St.
Louis County Road 7, half a mile south of Stone Lake Road. Since January
12th, a NORTHERN HAWK OWL has been along Cass County Road 73, a mile and
a half west of County Road 8. And on the 6th, one was in Itasca County
along U.S. Highway 2, about a half mile north of the Aitkin County line.

The TOWNSEND'S SOLITAIRE that has been behind the Science Museum of
Minnesota in St. Paul was still present as of today.

Thanks to the many people who have called to report their observations
of TRUMPETER SWAN, BALD EAGLE, RED-SHOULDERED HAWK, NORTHERN SHRIKE,
AMERICAN ROBIN, and WHITE-THROATED SPARROW.

The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, February 14th 2008.
