Bassmaster Elite Series check-in: Where do the Minnesotans stand?
That Detroit Lakes, Minn., pro bass angler Bob Downey is still in the running to make the Bassmaster Classic – the pinnacle of professional bass fishing, which will be held early next year – is a bit surprising, even to him. Classic qualification is based largely on points earned throughout the season’s nine Elite Series events, and Downey missed an entire event following the birth of his son.
It doesn’t matter in the big picture of life, of course, but it puts him behind the proverbial 8-ball in terms of his tournament career. And yet, heading into the so-called “northern swing” of the Elite Series early next month, Downey is in 48th place among the 103 anglers.

Nature Smart: A tough-to-classify bird
People love to group, label, and pigeon-hole what we see and experience around us in nature.
I believe it helps us to understand and organize in our brains the vast number of species with which we share the planet. But like most things, we often take labeling and grouping a little too far from time to time.

Backyard and Beyond: Birds and bees
Herbie Self watched what could be called the “other oriole,” the seldom-seen orchard oriole, slurping up grape jelly. A bee buzzed in for some jelly, too, and the oriole added it to the menu.
