[Mnbird] [mou-net] B. Waxwing and R. Blackbird in the Metro

[linda whyte]

Thanks to you, Alyssa, and to others of you who post here. Being one of
those people who checks only here and eBird alerts, I appreciate the
"heads-up" about what I might look for on my exercise walks if there
happesn to be time (scarce these days). Because of  timely posts, I've
recently enjoyed the Bohemian Waxwings at Lake Byllesby, and coincidentally
learned of a new area to power-walk that offers grass trails as well as
good winter birding habitat. I now also have some close choices of sites
where a Solitaire might be found. Thanks to all of you faithful posters!
