An eagle chick was briefly kidnapped from a nest on the Mississippi River recently.
 A St. Paul man set off today for a 290 mile canoe trip from Mendota to Madeline Island on Lake Superior, up the St. Croix, down the Brule, and beyond.  Nel’s Cline of Wilco writes about one of my favorite bands, Low. So I write about that. We just took a little sojourn out onto Lake Phalen with Lola. It was bright and sunny but only a couple degrees above zero — and temperatures are supposed to keep falling pretty drastically. Surprisingly, there wasn’t anybody out fishing. Here’s a little video I shot with my brand new fancy phone of Lola running around out there: She loves the ice, though right now there is only an inch of snow over slick ice and she was having trouble running at top speed without her back legs going out from under her.  Scott Brown, a skier and cyclist from Minneapolis, shot an enjoyable first-person point-of-view video on the Birkebeiner cross-county ski trail in northern Wisconsin. The 85-year-old race is threatened by climate change. |
