section of Apache St. and Cheyenne Ln. So far it's been staying north of Dakorah Ln., east of Apache. The bird was singing high up in deciduous trees (mostly silver maples in our neighborhood), so easier to watch without making the neighbors nervous. Dale Trexel Mendota Heights On Fri, Ap

A few updates, now that we're back from the field. We were never able to relocate the bird after the initial sighting, though we stuck around for a while hoping for a better view and photos. There's plenty of habitat there that it could be hanging out in, or it could have moved on. It was moving g

scope the bay. (Not much to note there.) We followed it to the burned area Jeff noted, where it was chased rather aggressively by a starling, and disappeared over the trees to the south. After scoping the water we returned to where we'd seen the bird before, but were unable to relocate it. -Dale T

the same bird, but we didn't realize it was a WEKI until later, when we biked by at the end of our loop. It seemed to be attempting to interact with a couple of Eastern Kingbirds in a non-aggressive way, but the EAKI were not happy with that and drove it off. Dale Trexel Mendota Heights Jo

so it's more notable of a sighting than I had expected at the time. We've seen them on the North Shore before, but usually far out over the lake, barely identifiable with a scope, so this up-close view was special. Dale Trexel Mendota Heights, MN (usually) General information and
