Nothing terribly exciting, but there is some shorebird habitat at Prairie Island in Winona, especially at the Verchota boat landing on Prairie Island Rd. Friday afternoon found the following:
Greater yellowlegs Lesser yellowlegs Pectoral sandpiper Killdeer Eight American white pelicans were feeding close to the parking lot, and and afforded nice close-up views. I followed up on Dedrick's sightings in Wabasha county and found plenty of both yellowlegs and a handful of pectorals. No phalarope, sadly. However, at the parking area I found FOY Palm warblers and White-throated sparrows. Good birding!
