<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV class=RTE> <P>On a lead from Ben Fritchman, I birded Wilken County today. I counted 80 Greater Prairie Chickens, 11 Gray Partridge, a W. Meadowlark, more horned larks than I could count, several N. Harriers, and saw a rough-legged hawk in pretty much every tree. The best locations were between Lawndale and Rothsay. I also saw a short eared owl on I-94 at mile 62 East of Fergus Falls. Had a nice morning. Thanks Ben.<BR><BR></P></DIV></div></html>
