Stopped by Sherburne refuge on the way back from a family gathering.(  The
light is horrible in the late afternoon on the auto route.  Best go in the
morning. ) That said, I did find two Gallinules paddling about at the water
control turnout (mile 2.5?).  Later drove to the sight reported by Betsy
Beneke with the Red-headed Woodpeckers.  I saw  one immediately after
turning in to the drive.  I was able to watch it hawk insects and did not
drive further so as not to disturb the birds.  I was happy to see one.  Time
was when you would see more dead along the roadside in a single day than you
can find in a decade now.  Probably not a good sign.
