The best spot to view Lake Byllesby now is at Lakewood Cemetery east of Randolph. I believe that is Dakota County Highway 86. ________________________________ From: Minnesota Birds <[email protected]> on behalf of Brian Weisz <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2018 9:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mou-net] Lake Byllesby Dakota/ Goodhue County
We're was the open water area? I guess we went to bring spot. Right off 52 right?

There were hundreds of waterfowl of many species including a large variety of ducks in numbers and vast quantities of coots and swans. There were also a lot of Horned Grebes and over 100 Bonaparte's Gulls. Two Greater White-fronted Geese were there but at the far western edge of the lake in the usual shorebird spot, away from most of the other birds. We didn't even see the Cinnamon Teal but it was still well worth the trip! There were also a ton of water birds at Fort Snelling Stated Park where 494 crosses over but I did not have time to investigate. On the bird walk I led this morning at Roberts Bird Sanctuary there was a nice variety of migrants but notable were the very large numbers of Fox Sparrow and Hermit Thrush. Happy spring migration!
