Greetings:
Kirsten and I birded west of Faribault this morning to the marsh on the
north side of Highhway 12, at Independance Avenue. Kirsten discovered a grebe
disappearing in the grass near the road at the side of the marsh. We waited a
bit and then saw a female EARED GREBE as it swam out into the water, followed
by EIGHT little grebes about 4-5 days old.
Around the marsh , in the water and in some trees were 25 GREAT EGRETS
East of there on Highway 12 and north on Highway 171 to Highway 38, jog east
to Garfield. A mile or so north was a group of Canada Geese and one goose had
EIGHT 1/3rd grown goslings.
Forest and Kirsten Strnad
Faribault, Mn.
