This morning (20th) I braved the howling gale and found 22 species of waterfowl at 3 sites in Dakota County: 1) Spring Lake Reg. Park, 2) Goodwin Ave and CR 47, and 3) Lake Byllesby. Some of the most interesting: Goodwin-CR47: Ross's Goose - 2; Snow's - 25; Greater White-fronts - 20, Tundra Swans - 7 Spring Lake: Greater Scaup - 1; Lesser Scaup - 400 Lake Byllesby: Blue-winged Teal - Pair I also photographed an exceptionally early Dunlin at the west end of Lake Byllesby. This basic plumaged bird was feeding close to Killdeer, of which there were several present. James Mattsson matt...@earthlink.net Why Wait?
