* Saturday AM - 14 warbler species at Father Hennepin State Park, including 
Connecticut, Black-throated Green, Canada & Wilson's - Philadephia Vireo as 
well - Mille Lacs lakefront (west side) was quiet except for four 
Sanderlings at Garrison pull off (they've painted the fish!).  Finally 
knocked down Mille Lacs nemesis species (had not had a Merlin in nearly five 
years in the county).  Two white deer present at Hennepin.

* Monday AM - only 8 warbler species at Blue Hill Trail, Sherburne NWR but 
these included Bay-breasted & Northern Parula - Junco, Lincoln's Sparrows,

Good birding to all!
