Brad Abendroth and I headed down to Blue Earth after returning from the MBW
in Aitkin County this afternoon, and after a little searching and a
fortunate encounter with Wayne Feder, we were able to observe the bird
around 7:30 in its original location. The bird appeared bedraggled and
seemed to have been injured. Wayne observed that its beak and its face
looked scratched (maybe from the encounter with the dog?). Although it may
be exciting for us to see this bird in Minnesota, it's probably tragic for
the bird to be here. It's unlikely that it could ever make it back south
where it belongs.
