Hello Everyone, Just another reminder that there is a MOU Fieldtrip scheduled for this coming Saturday, May 7th. We will meet at 7:30 AM at the entrance of Father Hennepin State Park in Isle. Isle is located on the south side of Mille Lacs Lake in northern Mille Lacs County. We will explore trails in Father Hennepin and Mille Lacs Kathio State Parks for migrants and the many nooks and crannies along the shores of Mille Lacs Lake for waterbirds and migrants. Although migration is a bit delayed this spring, birding in Aitkin & Crow Wing Counties has been very exciting thus far. This is a great time to be looking for unusual birds along Mille Lacs wooded shores, and we are hoping that the warm weather from this week will bring the migrants flooding in. If time allows, we may visit other areas in southern Aitkin County. Lunch will be fast food in Garrison or you can bring your own picnic lunch from home to enjoy on the Mille Lacs shore. Kim and Cindy Risen will be leading.
As always, MOU Fieldtrips are FREE of charge and open to anyone with an interest in birds, natural history, or going for a walk in the woods. You can reply to this email with your confirmation, or any questions you might have regarding the fieldtrip. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday. Until then...Good Birding! Kim & Cindy Risen Tamarack, MN P.S. A Minnesota State Parks vehicle permit is required to enter the state parks.
