We still have a pair of Sandhills hanging out in my field (they seem to be going after the broad leaf arrowhead tubers)...this is the same pair we have seen since August. We have watched them do their mating dance ritual several times.

Please visit our website to see details on the tours. You must pre-register for them by calling or emailing the refuge. 763/ 389-3323 ext. 13 or sherburne @fws.gov . If you call after office hours, leave your name, phone number, and number of people who will be attending. Because of the shut-down, and uncertainty about whether we'd be able to do the tours, I didn't advertise much, so we have plenty of room. Tony Hewitt, our refuge biologist, will be leading the tours. http://www.fws.gov/refuge/sherburne/ Betsy Beneke Visitor Services Manager Sherburne, Crane Meadows, Rice Lake NWRs ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
