2020-04-28

'Casual' in Minnesota - Five or fewer records in Yellow Medicine County for the Spring season

Pale male. Light blue uniform back and wings in flight. Dirty gray, blue tinted breast and belly. All Orange color absent from breast. Could not get good enough look to determine bill size. Seen at 7:00 pm at corner of 220th Ave and 610th st. (MN 67). 7 miles north of Echo, MN. It was with an eastern bluebird female. Poor quality photo attached. They moved west together down a fence 200 yds (into sun) then exited area east of Hwy 67.
