[mou] Westwood Hills (Hennepin Co.)

[alyssa]

There were quite a few migrants present at Westwood Hills Nature Center (St. Louis Park) today. Highlights included:

- Blue-headed Vireo (a youngster which landed on the trail as it picked up a tasty morsel)

- Red-necked Grebe (1 that has been present for the past week on the northwest side of the lake)

- White-throated Sparrow (appeared to be a 1st winter, hanging out by the feeders)

There were two small warbler waves between the building and the T Dock, but no species of interest, except for the fist male redstart and first Scarlet Tangager I've seen this fall. Warbling Vireo, R-E Vireo (?), House Wrens and yellowthroats are still singing. Other species seen recently include Ruby-crowned Kinglet and Lincoln's Sparrow. E-mail for any questions. Good birding!
