A small group of intrepid birders met at Rice Lake Refuge @ 3:30 AM for a relaxed Big Day in Aitkin, Mille Lacs & Sherburne Counties. Highlights among 129 species included:
* Sharp-tailed Grouse on CR 1 * 20 warbler species including Cerulean at Kathio State Park * White-rumped Sandpiper on ML Lake Unfortunately only one Yellow Rail was briefly heard by the guide only before the trip began. 'Twas a good group on a beautiful day!
