Spent the day birding around Sibley, Renville and Nicollet counties. The most productive waterfowl spot I found, by far, was the Dehning WPA in Sibley county. There were well over 1,000 individual waterfowl present in this small wetland:
over 200 Trumpeter Swans about a dozen Greater-white Fronted Geese (although there we certainly more hidden in the grasses) at least three Cackling Geese plus 15 other species of waterfowl This WPA is located on the east side of county road 12, just south of Silver Lake about four miles east of the town of Arlington. All the larger bodies of water are still frozen. Also, three Snow Geese were at the Fairfax sewage ponds in Renville county.
