The Surf Scoter was still on Pickeral Lake today. This is the same bird Rita Goranson found last Sunday and John Hockema saw on Monday. Today it was in the bay just north of the park and could easily be seen from the highway. White Woods County Park just south of this area a few miles had a Merlin among the more normal migrants like Red-breasted Nuthatch, both kinglets, etc. Denny Dennis and Barbara Martin Shorewood, MN [log in to unmask] ---- Join or Leave mou-net:http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
