Dear MN birders: I have lurked on the list for the past few months, having moved back to Minnesota after a twelve-year hiatus. This past week, my father and I appreciated just how wonderful the birds in this state are. We birded northern Minnesota including: Duluth, Sax-Zim, Rice Lake, McGregor, Agassiz, Felton Prairie, and many others. Among our 160+ species was one I have to share with the list: a LITTLE BLUE HERON at Farmes Pool in Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge. The bird was seen on the south side of the pool around 10AM on Monday, June 16.
Best, Matt -- Matthew Bribitzer-Stull Assistant Professor of Music Theory University of Minnesota
