Bob Janssen has spent many years surveying the birdlife in each of MN state parks. The MNDNR has just published his book.
This is one more contribution to MN ornithology by one of the state's most dedicated and knowledgeable students of nature. The book should increase the public's appreciation and understanding of the state's avifauna and bring more supporters to its conservation. "Each of Minnesota's 75 state parks is represented by a birding-oriented description, a page of recommended places to visit, and a map. The parks are a haven for birds, often providing the only suitable habitat for a species in the surrounding region. Over 300 of the regularly occuring bird species in Minnesota have been observed in the state parks." It also has many photographs.
