I normally do not post images of the birdfeeders, but with migration in full swing and NE Minnesota experiencing the second dreary, foggy, damp day in a row … color is in order! Mind you there is not a single person who is complaining about the wet weather. The heavy rains have been just “what the doctor ordered” to combat the nearby Stewart Trail Forest Fire. Hopefully some of my friends will be able to return to their homes today, and discover the fire fighters were able to save their houses. Prayers requested.

On to Greenwood Creek. These photographs and the video were taken two days ago on Sunday morning. As of Sunday all of my trailcams and listening stations are now in their deep summer locations. Perhaps we could finally even get some spring like weather?

Pay particular attention to the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak images. I for one never knew this bird specie had “rose coloring” on the underpart of its flight feathers near the body. Stop action photography is necessary!
