Andy Nyhus is reporting a Red-necked Grebe at the gravel pit ponds northeast of Luverne in Rock County. He found the bird around 10:00 this morning out in the middle of the southernmost pond. Also, there is a blue-phase Snow Goose in the north pond.
While Red-necked Grebes aren't necessarily rare birds in southwest Minnesota, this appears to be the first record for Rock County. Bob Dunlap ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
