Never fear Betsy the 15th Festival of birds in Detroit Lakes was as good as ever. There were over 200 birders, workshops on golden-winged warblers and American woodcock, great talks by Carrol Henderson and John Marzluff, and lots of birds including: redheaded woodpeckers at Balmoral Golf Course, red-necked phalarope at Hamden Slough NWR, and 16 species of shore birds at Agassiz NWR including a white-faced ibis.

It seems to me there was some big birding event in Detroit Lakes this past weekend, wasn't there? The birding must have been really poor, since I haven't seen a single post about what was found up there. Too bad...I've heard that at one time, it was a pretty cool area to be in during spring migration, and that festival was not to be missed...
