5/19/03 While participating on a field trip to Itasca County with Carol Schumacher. A Willet was observed at the White Oak Lake boat landing, which is just South of the town of Deer River. I first observed the bird feeding in a line of weeds and small line of rocks in the water to the South West of the parking area. Despite inclimate weather the distinctive Black & White pattern on the wings were very easy to observe and the entire group was able to see the bird as it walked along the weed line. @ Willet Watch for a future posting on other birds observed by Carol's group.
