Statewide birding report: 1st wave of early migrants reaches Northwoods
1ST WAVE OF EARLY ARRIVALS TO NORTHWOODS
The north is finally getting the initial wave of early migrants as American robins, red-winged blackbirds, common grackles, Canada geese and ring-billed gulls made a good push this week all the way to Lake Superior.
Look for more fox sparrows, northern flickers, yellow-bellied sapsuckers, brown creepers, both kinglets, tree swallows, as well as ospreys, common loons, and horned grebes in the week ahead as water bodies continue to open up.
