2021 04 18 Crow Hassan
On April 18th I went to Crow Hassan for only the 2nd time ever birding there. It's the only place I have ever seen an Eastern Meadowlark before since it is the largest prarie remnant left in the Twin Cities (humans have destroyed over 99% of Minnesota's original Praries). While it's mostly Prarie it also has a few small lakes around it which attracts all types of birds and it seems like a pretty good birding spot even though I haven't been there much.
Luckily I saw another Eastern Meadowlark on this 2nd trip! And actually got kinda okayish photos despite the backlighting just by having a better camera. Plus the last one was running through the grass, this one was perched in a tree loudly singing which is much easier to photo. :)
It was a very windy day which mean the Tree Swallows were having trouble flying especially in one direction so they were looking for places to perch a lot more than usual which let me get some good photos of them. A couple of them seemed to know each other and kept hanging out together while also constantly looking like they wanted to kill each other :p
BE WARNED if you are arachnophobic I also got pictures of a Grayish Jumping Spider and also some kind of Bee buzzing around a flower and some flies doing it. More bugs means more food for everything else so they are super important!
