I flushed one this morning while deer hunting in the city of Duluth. First one I have ever seen. I had no idea they were this far north

They are very common further north across the prairie provinces in Canada, but at the edge of their range in northeastern MN. They are a grassland/cropland bird and not well adapted to the forested areas of MN.
"Said one of these men, long past seventy years of age: 'I could carry, paddle, walk and sing with any man I ever saw. I have been twenty-four years a canoe man, and forty-one years in service; no portage was ever too long for me. Fifty songs could I sing. I have saved the lives of ten voyageurs. Have had twelve wives and six running dogs. I spent all my money in pleasure. Were I young again, I should spend my life the same way over. There is no life so happy as a voyageur's life!'"

In the city? How'd that go?

it went ok..I bumped a doe twice on the way in..almost a mile to get to my stand..so moved my setup a little closer to where I park..about 1/3 mile to stand now and I don't go through that bedding area..flushed the bird on the way out with stand on back and pack on front..almost stepped on it... very pretty birds.
