[mou] Dunlin and Red-headed Woodpecker in Itasca County

[Earl Orf]

The parade of shorebirds continues here in Itasca County.  Normally, we have
a hard time finding shorebirds here but this year our "flooded field on CR
10" continues to produce surprises.  It has mostly dried up but I was there
this morning about 7:30 and found a Dunlin among the 15 Semi-palmated
Plovers.  This is a new Itasca County bird for me.  Directions are: Itasca
CR 10, 4.5 miles south of Hwy 169.  The field is just south of the Trout
Lake Community Center.

 

When I arrived home I had another surprise.  We have a Red-headed Woodpecker
in our yard (a new yard bird, for sure).
