At 2pm today, I was surprised to see hundreds of Tundra Swans sitting in a farm field approx. 2 miles east of US 75 south of Warren (300Ave and 200th Streets NW). I also spotted 5 Short-eared Owls flying over the CRP and impoundment on 190th Street NW between Polk Co. 68 and 300th ave NW. Several Northern Harriers, Red-tailed Hawks and Bald Eagles. Rough-leggeds are still here. Several Sharp-tailed Grouse, dozens of Sandhills, Western Meadowlarks, Tree Sparrows, Flickers. The first ticks of the season yesterday. -- Heidi Hughes Agassiz Audubon Society 27391 190th Street NW Warren MN 56762 218.745.5663 http://AgassizAudubon.blogspot.com <http://agassizaudubon.blogspot.com/> http://OnLakeAgassiz.blogspot.com <http://onlakeagassiz.blogspot.com/> *Invest in our Community Nest Watch projects* http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Get-Swifts http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Bluebirds http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Purplemartins http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Kestrel-Nest-Box-Project ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
