Visited the very productive ponds and fields located in Carver county near the intersection of county road 53 and 150th street (44.734,-93.796). Hundreds of Greater-White Fronted Geese, many Tundra Swans, and most dabbling duck species were present and constantly arriving during the snow flurries.
Also present was a single Lesser Yellowlegs (first report this year?) and a Plover species, which I believe to be an American Golden Plover. Photos were included with the ebird report - http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S28412617 The distance is fairly far and a scope would be useful. Snow and Ross' geese have also been stopping here in the past week. - Justin Watts Hennepin County ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
