Birders, Spring is coming soon! With it will be all the returning migrants. And there is a great place to see them along with some great folks to go birding with. Seasoned guides will lead the tours around the many wetlands and prairies in Lac qui Parle and southern Big Stone counties. Gathering for meals is included.
So check your calendars now! The 38th annual MOU Affiliated Salt Lake Weekend will be held Saturday, April 27th in Southwestern Minnesota. This great event is named for the alkaline lake straddling the Minnesota / South Dakota border known as Salt Lake, in Lac qui Parle County. Started by Goodman Larson and now coordinated by Goody's son, Ken, this well run event is one of the highlights of spring. Attendees are sure to see lots of ducks, geese, shorebirds and passerines. Well over 100 species are tallied for the weekend each year. A surprise or two is to be expected, one of which may be the weather. So prepare in Minnesota fashion. All are invited to come back or try this birding adventure. Please check out the special MOU website page we have for this event: http://moumn.org/saltlake/ -- Sincerely, Jim Ryan Saint Paul's Westside ---- One of the first conditions of happiness is that the link between Man and Nature shall not be broken. -* Leo Tolstoy* A well governed appetite is the greater part of liberty. - *Lucius Annaeus Seneca* ---- ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
