With ice out occurring up through Wright County now, I thought I would let people know about a lake drawdown project that is in effect and could provide for some good shorebird viewing. The name of the lake is Malardi Lake, and it is roughly two miles northeast of the city of Montrose. There is a state owned access on the east side of the lake, and the Area Wildlife Manager unlocked the gate as of today. Much of the land around the lake is privately owned so please treat it that way unless you receive permission. Shorebird activity was a little slow today, but as the lake continues to recede there should be plenty of exposed mudflats for shorebirds to forage on.
