Hey birders,
I just wanted to offer highlights from the Mankato CBC. The biggest highlight was a Snowy Owl! The bird was located west of CR21 on CR101 in the Kasota Prairie area around 3pm. Also in that area: Snow Bunting, Lapland Longspur, several Rough-legged Hawks, Northern Shrike, and a Merlin. Other birds of note: Common Redpoll, Purple Finch, Rusty Blackbird, Red-breasted Nuthatch, and two Northern Saw-whet Owls. Happy birding! *Chad Heins* Associate Professor of Biology Bethany Lutheran College 700 Luther Drive Mankato, MN 56001 Office: 507.344.7327 | Toll Free: 800.944.3066 chad.he...@blc.edu| www.blc.edu
