Eagle migration is underway in far northern Wisconsin. Tim Oksiuta, Nick
Anich, and I had our first GOLDEN EAGLE of the year today amidst more than a
dozen Balds, all migrating past the Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center west of
Ashland. Also had our first Red-tailed Hawk of the year, scattered flocks of
flyby Bohemian Waxwings and an early (or perhaps even overwintering) BELTED
KINGFISHER. Just outside of Ashland I found a feeder hosting 5 species of
finches, including Purple and House Finch, American Goldfinch, Pine Siskin, and
Common Redpolls. Herring Gulls have returned in good numbers with 150+ on
Chequamegon Bay near the breakwall. The bay is still 99% iced over so not much
for waterfowl yet.
