<DIV>Report from the cabin on Platte Lake in Crow Wing County--</DIV>
<DIV>The orioles are gone, but hummingbirds are still busy at the feeders.
That includes one-- probably migrating-- that couldn't figure out how to get at
the nectar. The highlight was a red breasted nuthatch. They
sometimes show up here in the fall, but I haven't seen one for a few years.
</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Otherwise, an unremarkable weekend for birds.</DIV>
