[mou] Sherburne, southern Mille Lacs

[Pastor Al Schirmacher]

Highlights in Sherburne and southern Mille Lacs Counties this week:

* Varied Thrush, Princeton, feeders on CR 1/75th Street about a mile north 
of Highway 95 (specific directions available, note previous report)

* Bohemian Waxwings, Ann Lake.  Northern Goshawk noted in same location by 
another birder earlier this week.  Wouldn't surprise me if the Townsend's 
Solitaire is still around (there's much territory that is tough to get at - 
and it's been a bit nippy to be wandering across snow fields).

* Great Blue Heron, CR 1 & 87 intersection.  Couple of Trumpeters there 
today as well, but Monticello is close by.

* Most intriguingly, a credible source reported a Northern Hawk Owl four 
miles north of Princeton along 169.  Have not personally located it yet, but 
since I commute by there at least twice daily...have high hopes.

Good birding to all!
