Just for clarification, Lake Osakis is in Douglas and Todd Counties, not
Grant (Douglas is between Grant and Todd).

 Connie Jo and I birdied for a few hours this afternoon near and around
 Lake Osakis, the south, west and northwest shorelines of which held
 thousands of waterfowl.  Highlights included FOY western grebes, as well as
 large numbers of canvasback, many scaup (mostly lesser and a few greater),
 and a good assortment of bufflehead, redhead, gadwall, ring-necked,
 shovelers, wigeon, wood duck, mallards, blue-winged and green-winged teal.
 Of course, many Canada geese, pied-billed grebes and rafts of coot were
 also present.  Our scoping and viewing were done both from the public
 landing in the town of Osakis and from County Road 10 north of town.

 Other FOY birds were a pair of rusty blackbirds, a vesper sparrow, hermit
 thrush and yellow-bellied sapsucker, all viewed from County Highway 10.
