[mou-net] Snowy Egret--Kandiyohi County

[Josh Wallestad]

There is a Snowy Egret in Willmar in the newly formed wetland along the
Willmar bypass (US 71/MN 23). This is just south of Willmar Avenue or CR
23. The wetland is on the east side of the bypass, and there is a gravel
entrance ramp you can drive down from CR 23 to get close to the wetland.
The Snowy Egret is at the far SE corner of the wetland with two Great
Egrets. It is sometimes out of view as it hunts around a culvert.

[mou-net] Eaglets (sp?) St Paul

[Doris Rubenstein]

Biking the trail in Lilydale Reg Park this a.m. (Fri), I saw a pair of 
fledgling eaglets (sp?) sitting on the edge of their huge nest in a dead tree 
overhanging the shore of the lake there (S side of trail). No parents nearby, 
but still a neat sight!  Doris Rubenstein

Near the same location closer to the road by the railroad bridge there is
another next with three eaglets that are about 1 month ahead of the ones
you pointed out.

[mou-net] Western Wood-Pewee, Clay Co.; Black-necked Stilts, Grant Co.

[Chu, Philip]

The Western Wood-Pewee at Buffalo River State Park in Clay Co. continues:  I 
was there between 5:40 and 8:15 AM this morning, and must have heard the bird 
150 times.  It's a good thing, too, because yesterday someone said to me, 
"Dude, stay away from the King Rail site because you're obviously bad luck."


So, after leaving Clay Co. I *did* go to Grant Co. and the North Ottawa 
Impoundment, and, as was reported by Randy Frederickson earlier today, the King 
Rail was pretty cooperative, at least for a while; also present were the two 
Black-necked Stilts, which are a pair and appear to be nesting in the 
southernmost B pool - they engaged in a protracted distraction display with a 
Great Egret that approached too closely.


(At the North Ottawa Impoundment, you can think of the pools as being arranged 
in columns that run from north to south.  The eastern column consists of the A 
pools, the western column consists of the C pools, and the middle column is 
made up of the B pools.  Actually, calling those units "pools" is a bit 
confusing, as some of them are mostly dry.)
