April 10, 2015 Friday Bird Walk
For an unprecedented second Saturday in a row, I was not on the regular Saturday Bird Walk! We were in Minnesota for Spring Break. Okay, yes - ha, ha - very funny; I can hear the comments coming in, but yes, we did go to Minnesota for our Spring Break. It was great to be back in Minnesota and see some familiar birds and be in an upper Midwest habitat. We visited a great park, Tamarack Nature Center, twice in one day. Most of the images for the slide show and the checklists below are from Tamarack.
