Refuge staff, volunteers and Friends of Sherburne we were treated to a presentation by Jim Gilbert today, and we followed up with a trip around the Prairie's Edge Wildlife Drive.
We saw FOY Forster's terns (2 or 3) and palm warblers (2) that are just starting to trickle in. Someone reported a rose-breasted grosbeak this morning, but we didn't see it during our tour. There were 2 little gray eaglet heads poking out of the Bergerson Pool nest as well. Our log jam of waterfowl all left Monday-Tuesday. Guess they had clear skies and a window of time to push on. Marshes that were full of ducks are now fairly empty. We have quite a few blue-winged and green-winged teal left, and other resident nesters.
